Before you switch to something else, did you try to configure the WMQ explorer settings?
First go to the settings dialog:
Then select the Messages panel and adjust the value:
The reason WMQ Explorer has these default settings is to prevent visible “freezing” if, for example, there were 3,500 messages of 64k in size. Given these default values, Explorer will load no more than 500 of them and only the first 10 kilobytes of each. Given the default values, Explorer can view the deep queue with large messages and still return at a predictable time.
The same problems persist for any other browser tool, since the bottleneck is the network, not the tool.
However, if you want to see other tools for desktop clients, SupportPac MO71 is quite popular.
