Actually, we are having some serious trouble. I'm thoroughly burned out. Additionally we have deadlocks on a couple of cases.
In fact, the situation is so bad, that I think we should consider alternatives to our current procedures. Is there some other way we could resolved the issues which come to arbitration, perhaps by committees of administrators?

That's rather uncharitable. Investigating dubious editing can take a long time and the ArbCom inevitably get the most complicated and intractable cases. It may not always be possible to predict when one has the time to give to this unpaid and voluntary work.
Several Arbitrators are in academia where September and October is a very demanding time. More understanding should be shown.
