John, currently we have CF sending out 20k+ emails per day. (Usually within a one hour timeframe). The setup I inherited is all on one box. The site shows delayed responses during this mailing, however it's not too bad. I think the majority of the spped issues have to with bad coding.

I'm currently working on a new setup whereas the emails will be sent from a CFserver dedicated to email only.
