17 required performance, there are several configuration options that
18 can be changed to accomplish higher performance. However, before
20 performance is not as good as desired. This may also involve hardware

43 mail) with high overall throughput.

153 Before 8.12 sendmail would deliver an e-mail sequentially to all its

202 -----------------------------------------------
204 In this case some program generates e-mails which are sent to
205 individual recipients (or at most very few per e-mail). A simple
206 way to achieve high throughput is to set the delivery mode to
212 enhance performance, especially compared to normal disk subsystems, e.g.,
213 non solid-state disks.
