It's training throughput that is causing the backlog. Not only do we need to train new hires, but there's that pesky yearly visit to the sim that everyone already qualified needs to do.
If any regional could magically handle larger classes than they've got scheduled they would do it. Additional sims will help, but you've got to get instructors trained and available and the Feds, or Fed Rep internal Designated examiners, can only observe so many checkrides.
