Re-opening until I address this.

• #152

from django-mailer.

Spooky, I have a problem at the company I work for, a momentary delay in sending some emails, have you ever had a similar problem? It happened on an old project, I suspect that the email queue got too big and the mailer couldn't send them all quickly.

Testing the app, I noticed that it doesn't really send emails very quickly and looking at the code, I got to the function

I'm thinking of a solution and maybe do a PR.

Sending emails will take time, because the data has to go over the network. How long was the delay, how many emails were there and how big were they?

Sending them in parallel may make things faster, but if you try to do too many in parallel almost certainly you will cause problems and could actually make things go slower, because of network congestion and the way the server might respond. In some cases, you could get throttling errors (e.g. if you backend was an HTTP API, which many people are using now).

So, overall, the change might not be worth it. We should also not that doing it in parallel will require multiple process or multiple threads, which can be a very tricky thing in this context, and would introduce a significant amount of fragility.

I don't know exactly how many emails were in the queue, but in some cases it took a few minutes to send the emails.
We currently use Sendgrid SMTP.

Thanks for the explanations.
All my doubts were resolved, whenever you want, you can close the issue.
