Another test would be to break up the large list into a number of smaller 
sub-lists with an umbrella list.  That would allow Mailman to have a lot more 
internal parallelism, and not get into lock synchronization issues over 
config.pck.  You could also run multiple sets of qrunners, if you split things 
correctly according to the "powers of 2" rule.

Much simpler solution here is to use the "smtpsink" program that Wietse 
supplies as part of the test harness for postfix.
