That seems exceptionally low. I get about 60-70 files/sec on a laptop
hard disk.

I am no expert with xapian databases, and that might seem obvious, but
you did a notmuch dump to save your tags, did you? If that works you can
nuke your database directory and after a notmuch new (1-2 days?!!) you
can notmuch restore your tags. This way, at least, you won't have any
data loss.
