Can the latency problems be worked around by increasing concurrency?
My understanding is that Postfix might have problems at very high
concurrency due to using one process per connection, whereas some
other servers are event-driven and can handle thousands of connections
without using too much memory.

Indeed there is not.  Any statement to that effect on my part was
erroneous and based on a misunderstanding.
