Unless your database is on another server. Sqlbox keeps a tcp connection open to bearerbox.
If you use smsbox, you need to connect each time you send an sms. I don’t have hard figures though. It will be interesting to know them.

We can add messages to send_sms table very quickly however once sqlbox is submitting those messages to bearerbox, and if beaerebox is unable to submit the same to upstream smsc at desired speed (because upstream smsc is not taking messages at provided speed, (Many factor involves here like hardware capacity, internet bandwidth)) then we will have huge queue at beaerebox level, which actually slow down the overall performance of kannel.
