??? it can only handle a singe connection, it forks a new process for
each new connection. the maximum number of processes depends on your
server but having more than 200 outbound connections from a single IP
address is usually counterproductive IME.

exim sends email, email is transported by the internet, the internet
is really really slow.

look at your testing procedures.
perhaps load 100 emails with 1000 revipients spreat across 100
desination MXs per email into the queue and then spawn 50 queue
runners.
