In general DLR is not so important info to be injected right away into the 
database.
if you have high load of MO/DLR, consider db pooling and even better, drop the 
http requests.
The Apache or Lighty or even ISS can handle the traffic you have mentioned with 
no issues.
What I do for high load of MO/DLR, is either use sqlbox to handle it,
either simply write directly to simple xml files.
OR, you may parse the kannel logs, which will require some regexp skills.
I used to implement all of the above, according to the specific projects.

The XML files easily can be loaded later in a queue in the database.
