oops.. you're right, they do claim 100K simultaneous sessions on one box. wonder how they do that on a stock OS. Foundry's product is used by the vast majority of carriers and large ISP's including Yahoo so i just assumed it was the best there is. :P

Nowhere is it claimed on eCelerity's site that they can handle 100,000 connections on a single machine. They claim that they can SCALE to that figure. What they do claim is that they are 10X the speed of conventional MTA's. This is believable, but it's still far less than what the IronPort can do. But they are both commercial, so no way to see which one is really faster or how much faster they are than open-source MTAs.
