Proxmox is installed on RAID-1 1TB Disks with write-back enabled.
I have 5 OpenVZ containers running, 2 of them are sending email marketing (no spam).
Are those slow results caused by the high sendmail processing rate?

I was planning to buy a SSD drive and put the email marketing containers on it. Can it resolve the problem?

Regards,
