Derating a hot water boiler

Any advice on derating a hot water boiler? My boiler is about 2x the size it should be. Often it will fire for about a minute and shut off. I have had it checked out and there is nothing wrong with it. The short cycling has to be killing any efficiency that I might have. The unit has about 16 burner tubes. Can the number of burners be reduced to promote longer cycles? How many could be removed? Thank You
