Exim for instance will defer deliveries if more than N messages are received in a single connection. As a result, you typically get no outbound deliveries going on during a qrunner broadcast.
IMHO, I consider that seriously broken.
It can also be viewed as an advantage. Given a large inbound mail load, Exim throttles itself to try and be maximally available/responsive for any other large mail events that might happen synchronously. This is a seemingly fairly standard philosophy of Exim's: Make sure you can always play nice.
Funny, I don't remember being absent minded.
Neither did I.
