Yes, but I/O wait is exactly where the problem is. Your mails aren't coming any faster with 0.1% CPU load than with 99% CPU load if I/O is the bottleneck.
I'm still waiting for the day when DJB has to admit that his hardware or OS has cheated on him enabling the write cache defeating f[data]sync() and that made qmail fast. I wonder if he ever did proper testing with unplugging his computer while the queue was full with local deliveries :-P
