How huge is ``huge''? Ten times faster? 5 percent faster?
How is the difference affected by the size of messages?
How is the difference affected by SMTP pipelining?
How is the difference affected when multiple concurrent connections are
used (amortizing RTT-induced delays in SMTP)?
How many people using ``a typical modem link'' send enough email to
feel that ``huge difference''?

Oh, BTW, are you ever going to make any comment about the VERP
expansion snafu in qmail-send when messages are delivered to local
virtual domains? ;)
