This is one of the things I've been wondering about for a while. What's the
definition of "small files" here? 1k? 5k? 25k? If it's say 5k or less where
it shines and you send a bunch of mail that is 20k each (and by bunch I'm
thinking like 100-200k messages on a list exploder), does performance tank?
