I'm not sure how the various inputs into the processor are supposed to be handled in your model. But a simple approach would be to batch items (tokens) into a single token. This token then 'acquires' the processor, blocking other tokens/batches from progessing further before it has finished. And then releases the items to the processor one by one.

Note that the queue in the attached model is set to "Do Not Release Items".
