Default composting corn cobs

Hi All ;
I find that whole cobs are slow to break down in the composter - so I
have been cutting them into ~ 5 pieces with a big knife - it helps
a bit - but I'm wondering if there is a better way - both in terms
of composter efficiency and to ease the chore a bit.
my wife puts up several dozen in the freezer plus what we enjoy at
the table I wondered if a big old heavy duty meat grinder would
handle them ? Would an old food processor stand up to the job ?
Any other suggestions are welcome.
John T.
