As well as the mailman tweaks, you can tell exim to do parallel 
delivery - see the documentation for 'remote_max_parallel' at:-
  http://www.exim.org/exim-html-3.20/doc/html/spec_11.html#SEC333

You can do both of these together - and in fact I do on the exim site 
although the config for that is done by feel rather than testing 
combinations rigorously.  In general you will get 95% of recipients 
delivered fast, and the others will stick for reasons outside your 
control.
