Pick a couple of samples and check the logs - has an attempt to
send ever been made?
You shouldn't need that many queue runners. A new one is started
every (whatever you specified), and runs until it has done a full
pass of the queue - this makes the number of runners in progress
self-tuning. Use "ps" or "exiwhat" to see how many are in progress
at any time.
