Below, you say that you think the big concurrency patch is useless but in
your testing:

http://www.lamer.de/maex/creative/software/qmail/deliveries/,

your lowest evaluation was for 150 remote connections and qmail's default
maximum without the patch is 120. So you would still need the big
concurrency patch even for your lowest setting and hence, I don't think you
meant to say it's useless. By all means correct me if I'm wrong. I usually
don't know what I'm talking about.

Dunno about sendmail, but with the big concurrency patch maximum concurrency
for qmail can be as high as 2^16 (okay, you need a few descriptors, but
65500 should be possible).

And from the README to that patch:

And as I have posted about 60 minutes ago to this list, I have made the
observation that the big concurrency patch for qmail is pretty much useless.
