I agree with most of this, and myself run with -L.  However, the seconds
sentence overstates the problem slightly.  Doing the network tests is a parallel
problem, so while each individual message might take a second, it's not stopping
other messages from being processed at the same time; since your machine is
going to be waiting on network IO for most of that second, it shouldn't impact
performance of the server much at all, except that it will slightly increase
your memory requirements, since more messages are likely to be in memory at a
time.
