Does concurrencyremote stay near 255 during these times when
subscribers are waiting for messages? If so, and you have I/O capacity
to spare, apply the big-concurrency patch available from
www.qmail.org. (I'm running with a concurrencyremote of 500.) If not,
you may be I/O bound, or suffering from the qmail-send bottleneck,
whereby new injections (such as bounces) throttle outgoing mail. If
you're I/O bound, you'll have to rearrange or upgrade your hardware.
If you're hitting the qmail-send bottleneck, try a dual installation
where you have one qmail for sending list messages and another for
handling SMTP injections.

Do you run a caching nameserver (DJB's dnscache is the best) on the
list server?

Are you logging with daemontools?
