Has anyone tried to single tank this as a Dk?
We are a very melee heavy group and it has caused issues with getting volcanoes down fast enough we are thinking of adding one more melee dps (switching a tank) but not sure if it actually makes the healing more of a challenge since there is more AOE hitting more people.

I think single-tanking Lord Jaraxxus as a DK would be extraordinarily fun. You get to do your own interrupts for Fel Fireball (or AMS), and holding aggro on the Mistress shouldn't be hard at all. By the time the first portal spawns, your DPS will be off Jaraxxus so your threat on him will not be an issue at all. You can focus your target on the Mistress, and I assure you Jaraxxus will not be pulled off you unless quite a few DPS are still on him, when they should be on the Mistress. The Infernals may present a slight problem from their aggro reset after Fel Inferno, but with 6 DPS, you should be getting 2 Infernals everytime, maybe 3 max. Just assign/mark one for the DPS to take down first so you can focus more of your threat on that one for the time being. If you are not going to single-tank it, then the Jaraxxus tank should help DPS the portal/volcano as well - it makes a notable difference.
As for survivability, it shouldn't be much of an issue. Let's say you have a Paladin healer, who was healing both you and the other tank before. Now, that Paladin will be concentrating on your full-time so you should be okay. Raid healing is still the same - nothing changes with that. I am actually very eager to try this strategy as it sounds both fun, and easier.
Funny thing about ToGC10 is the changing of raid composition for different fights. For Jaraxxus, you can have a tank go DPS. For Anub'arak, it becomes easier to have 2 healers provided they will be able to handle 2-healing it (notably Phase 3).
