Thanks Nikos,

it may help but there is another problem i haven't mentioned before. We have
a webapplication that receives dlrs from kannel. If kannel gets 10k dlr in
one sec then kannel tries to send all of them in the same sec to the app.
This behaviour kills the app (and the database behind it) because it gets
10000 http connections in one sec which is quite huge amount according to
our peaktime when there is 25 SMs/sec.
Unfortunately we are not the NASA with unimaginable computing capacity, so
the ideal solution for us would be a parameter that tells kannel how many
connections are allowed in one sec.

Bye,
Gabor
