SysAdmin has an article online by some of the top technical people
at Lyris (remember Lyris?):

Title: Which OS is Fastest for High-Performance Network Applications?

They use their MTA as a comparison tool, and crank it up to 
the equvalent of a concurrencyremote of 3000, though they 
don't seem to get much of a performance boost past 1000 on
the hardware they're using.

One of their conclusions is that their asynch multi-threaded
software model outperforms the process based model which qmail
uses.  Is their methodology convincing?  Well...

However, and interesting read.
