One off-topic comment on this subject. Postfix also has
support for connection caching, but uses the feature much
more carefully (on demand):
1. Connection caching to a destination is only enabled when
the queue has more messages to that destination than the
destination concurrency limit. In other words, only when
there are messages waiting for a delivery slot queued behind
the current message, and so the cached connection is likely
to get used.
2. Cached connections are closed after 2s of idle time, only
sustained traffic keeps cached connections open.
3. Cached connections are closed after ~300s of use. This
amortizes connection setup latency when some MX hosts are
slow. Sadly some receiving sites limit the number of
messages per connection (rather than connection duration).
That's unfortunate, re-use limits by message count don't
overcome slow MX connection "attractors".
See http://www.postfix.org/CONNECTION_CACHE_README.html#safety
These ensure that connection caching is never seen as "aggressive"
by receiving systems.
