A cubic metre of SHREDDED material? That will be about 1/4 tonne, and
will compost down to about 50 Kg. That's a hell of a lot. A cubic metre
of random branches isn't all that much, but isn't what I was referring
to - nor what the Web page should have been, unless it was trying to
deceive. The Bosch 2200 claims 140 Kg/hour, which is about 2 hours for
a cubic metre of shredded material.

Frankly, if you really have so much of less than 2" that it is too time
consuming to cut the 1"+ stuff up for burning, and regularly generate
a cubic metre of shredded material, get a proper commercial machine.
No "domestic use only" machine will stand up to it.
