A processor can have a different capacity then 1. But the processing starts right on entry for each item individually. If you want to collect first and then start simultaneously you are better of with a combiner. There is only one difference you need at least 2 input port connections. The first port collects only and always one item. It is called the container. Any other items are collected through input ports 2 and above by a recipe table called components table.

If you want to transfer 10 items simultaneously into processor then you put a queue previous to the processor which has got a capacity of 10. The queue batches 10 items and releases them all together at once.
