Hello, I read that operators got some features (like "send and forget" ;-)) in some SMSC that enable them to burst (by not requesting some dlr, and feedback) their sms traffic but in this case, the quality of service is degraded.
By the way, 80 millions sms is nothing for regular size operator. Clickatell coud have some bottlenecks : their access to some operators in restricted by the link they got with them, and if they are using roaming, the bottleneck will be the priority of the traffic has been dedicated for each link.

I used to work with India's largest Telecom operator and 11581946 messages were submitted to one of the SMSC on a single day,new year (1st jan,2007).The Operator has 12 similer SMSC all over the country.

A 10 msgs/sec link would be capable of sending 864.000 messages per day, so 80MM would take about 93 days (!) on a single 10 msgs/sec link. 80MM messages is totally massive on a "third party" perspective IMHO, but for peer to peer messaging I'm pretty sure there are many places where a single carrier does that and more on any regular day (I'm talking about regular user to user sms, not premium services or ringtones).
