Since we're on the subject of speed recently, is there a way limit the size of
the message queue in qmail?

Here's my situation: I'm sending out a large list of messages and it certainly
seems like the queueing process operates much faster than the smtp process 
which results in a large number of messages in the queue.  This has got to 
slow things down so I thought it would be nice if I could limit the queue
size to say 200 messages at a time.  Is this possible?

This would also be nice for some error recovery if I decide to put the whole
queue directory on a ramdisk.  After all, if it crashes I've just lost all
traceability on my mailing list.

Is the syslog-alternative program for qmail (I can't think of it's name right
now) a great deal faster?  I also presently have syslog turned off for
everything beyond major errors because it was causing a serious load on my
system.
