Anyone else doing this? Any tips or tricks? We manage, but it is always a PITA...

Everything Marcus said.
It also really helps if you have an NSK with 40-80K RPM available.
I'm spoiled
I can't even imagine 40K rpm!
Also, for the record, .010-.012-.015 is about average for our small drilling. We do a few jobs with .005"x10dia. with only 10k rpm it's like watching paint dry LoL. Amazingly, those drills can be touched off on the Renishaw OTS on our older machines, but the newer machines break them.
Dude, if you're really doing holes that small regularly, your company is losing money by not purchasing an NSK or similar spindle.
You can get electric ones like this: http://www.nskamericacorp.com/product/category/HES510/14
Or the air driven ones, which can go through the tool changer: http://www.nskamericacorp.com/product/category/HPS/16
Note: I have no experience with either of these spindles, but I run A LOT of these: BM-319 | NSK America Corporation : Nakanishi Industrial and they make micromachining so much easier and faster.
