I'm using Drupal 6.22, Simplenews 6.x-.1.3 and Elysia cron 6.x-1.2 to send +10k emails, 100 every 5minutes using Elysia cron.

In the Elysia cron settings say that simplenews_cron Exec Time is ~17sec to send each 100 emails, so during 17sec the site get stuck, I meant that any user can't open any page until the cron finish. The browser still loading any page waiting to the end of the process, this is normal?

Any idea if using innodb for Simplenews fix this?

If the hosting is cheap, sending is using your CPU power and can lock the database. Regular site performance might be reduced.
