I have noticed that it takes from two to three minutes for our LISTSERV
server to distribute a message sent to a list comprising about ten
subscribers.  As we are still testing LISTSERV before we make it available
to our user community, there is virtually no traffic through this server at
the moment, just two very low-volume lists plus my test list (with one
subscriber).

The server is a fairly speedy machine:  a Dell 6350 PowerEdge with dual
550MHz Xeon processors, 1 GB of RAM, and a PERC2 hardware raid controller
running Windows NT Server 4.0, SP6a and hotfixes.

Is this sort of delay common?  What would people recommend for testing and
tuning the performance of LISTSERV and LSMTP on this server?
