It was clear enough before. The answer is that this is not
possible. The queue is file-based by design.
The queue design is performant for deferred queues up to a few hundred
thousand messages. Beyond that, indeed you will have problems, but then
the real question is why does your deferred queue have 100k+ messages?
So if you want help, get help with keeping your incoming queue nearly
empty, your active queue at a few hundreds messages, and your deferred
queue at less than a few thousand messages.
