Roundabouts can definitely be challenged by heavy volume. They aren't right for every type of intersection. In parts of the US where rotaries and roundabouts are more common, they usually have a couple of lanes in them (always unmarked), which can handle volume better. Really busy ones have traffic lights to control entry, but that doesn't always help all that much.
Part of them working well is drivers being a little courteous, but this is the USA so that doesn't always work!
