That'll be interesting. With a concurrency of e.g. 255, an ideal test
system behaves much better than the net, since a number of your clients
will hang on to connections for a long time or time out, so that client
response time becomes limiting. The qmail-bigrem.path discussed on the
list might help. With your kind of hardware, you might be able to
support more than a 4x 255 concurrency.
