Perhaps. It's impossible to say without some details. Could you provide the
log entries for a message which was slow to deliver using:
grep [message-id] /path/to/exim/mainlog
You might also like to try debugging the delivery of a message which is still
on the queue:
/path/to/exim -d+all-memory -M [message-id]
Both of those should give us some clues as to why the deliveries are happening
slowly.
My first guess would be ident timeouts which default to 30s:
