Sorry for the extra posts. Can't think straight today:))
Are you using flow-control? I went back to your first couple of posts and
didn't see it mentioned.
At first I thought it was for only TCP, but then I found it in the manual
under log path flags and it didn't say it was only for TCP.

f l o w - control-    Enables flow-control to the log path, meaning that
syslog-ng will stop reading messages from the sources
of this log statement if the destinations are not able to process the
messages at the required speed. If
disabled, syslog-ng will drop messages if the destination queues are full.
If enabled, syslog-ng will only
drop messages if the destination queues/window sizes are improperly sized.
