There is no way to do that within Sympa, it'd be a function of your MTA 
(Postfix or whatever you're using) if anything, and even there I'm not sure 
what's available.  You can use the maxsmtp setting in Sympa to set a small 
number of smtp delivery processes, which will have the effect of doing 
fewer simultaneous deliveries and putting less load on your system, but the 
MTA will still try to deliver as fast as possible within each process and 
Sympa will start new ones as fast as it can.  None of the other 
smtp-related parameters in Sympa are really relevant, I think.
