Try Yann Golanski's paper at http://www.kierun.org

There's stuff you can tune like ident delays etc - but having a fast
filesystem, a local resolver and a decent pipe to the 'net will take care of
everything.

Hell, if you want this exim to route all outbound mail through a qmail box
(why?), then it should be even faster and easier for you.
