With absolute maximum on 7 transactions per second and in practice less than 4, and new transmissions coming in 13/second, how can this backlog ever be processed?

its a basic queueing system
so all transactions will be processed with time

X = # of queued transaction


A = 0 first queue position
Z = a number # last in queue

N = New transaction

ttp N = (Z-A)/(tpps)  // ttp = time to process , tpps = transactions processed per seconds

however the ttp N will keep rising
