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.
