You can try the PB local provider perhaps. That needs you to run Swift on 
eg tg-grid1 rather than on some arbitrary grid machine.

Then use a sites.xml entry something like:

  <pool handle="localhost">
    <gridftp  url="local://localhost" />
    <execution provider="pbs" url="none" />
    <workdirectory >/home/benc/swift-run-dir/</workdirectory>
  </pool>

Make sure the workdirectory is somewhere shared (the directory you're 
using at the moment is probably OK).

I've run this on teraport with a hundred or so jobs without any apparent 
problem, so hopefully this will scale better.
