If there's that much traffic, a four way stop will be even worse than a roundabout. You'll need a turbo roundabout, traffic lights or grade separated intersections in that case.
Four way stops are one of the dumbest inventions of man kind that are way over used in North America. Everyone has to stop all the time and it leads to scary situations at 2 way stops because people don't expect those anymore.
Here is a great video about life without stop signs in the Netherlands: https://youtu.be/42oQN7fy_eM https://youtu.be/42oQN7fy_eM
And here are some infinitely better alternatives:
Low traffic + low speed: raised intersections where right goes first.
Medium traffic + medium speed: priority road with yield signs on side streets and roundabouts
High traffic + medium speed: traffic lights
High traffic + high speed: grade separated intersections
