It won't degrade your separate HTTP server performance (ie. Apache running
on port 80/443). Since you are connecting probably to local.ip or
localhost TCP sockets shouldn't be too big of a worry, so no, probably no
degredation. We are using DLR urls as well, doesn't seem to be a problem.
We are sending 16,000+ messages a day through kannel with no sweat, using
the 13013 HTTP port.
