Could you create a router that exists solely to run a sleep command if a queue run is being performed?
slow_queue:
driver = accept
condition = ${if queue_running}
condition = ${run{/bin/sleep 30}{yes}{no}}
no_verify # Don't execute during ACL verification
unseen # Pass message to next router even though we've accepted
Bit of a hack but combined with strict queue-runner limits seems like it could work to effective throttle. Haven't tested, maybe some pitfalls?
