Why copy? Use list<unique_ptr<T>> for your queue. Or something equivalent.

You said processing is the low thing. that means mutex operations will 
hardly be a problem.

But the other tech I used was to just swap() the queue with an empty local 
one. Works fine with simple list<T> and similar queues.
