I think he's using European-style formatting, and that those numbers are forty-five thousand, ninety thousand, etc.
Those numbers sound great to me; I was always getting numbers in the order of magnitude of 1000 like Quinn said, even though I expected to go faster since we only did non-persistent messages. But my consumer code was never a no-op so I'm sure that was part of it.
