The only advantage I can think of is using multiple recipients in a
single request you can avoid creating a new thread and several file
descriptors in the smsbox process for every request as well as saving
some more on the side of your client, which should not be a big deal
really. smsbox theoretically can handle millions of requests a second; a
whole lot faster than your provider's SMSC, which is going to be your
real bottleneck, if you ask me.

And the real drawback I know is that using this method you can't use
delivery reports reliably.
