10ns is much faster than 5.3ms... It works, I've done it, it's reasonably
fast, but you still have to worry about things like swamping the todo
and on top of that you may have to worry about filling up your queue
disc. You can get QMail into a situation where it's completely wedged
until you manually remove some files from the ram disc to give it enough
space to continue delivering mail.
