[Mailman-Users] Slow Performance on semi-large lists

[Matthew Dickinson]

is 10 the ideal value? or just a guess-timate? would a value of 5 make it
even more efficient?

make sure you have

SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 10

in your mm_cfg file, to split up deliveries into small pieces.
Otherwise, each message goes out in one mail batch, and you
single-thread each message, and everyone behind a slow receiver has
to wait.
