Did you then delete those 35K messages in one fell swoop? I wouldn't be
surprised if XFS's performance were significantly different between these
exaggerrated extremes:
repeat 35000 times: { create a file, delete a file }
and
create 35000 files, delete 35000 files

Forgot to ask: Are you using XFS?
