So, run more than one queue runner!

There is nothing to stop you running a script that obeys "exim -q" 100
times if you want Exim to do this. Or set queue_run_max=100 and have the
daemon start queue runners every 30 seconds or whatever.
[All this assumes you have 10,000 messages, and not one message
addressed to 10,000 recipients, which is *not* the way to do it.]
