You were not adding the 'up' flag
on creation...and my script was.  I changed my script to not do
up and it reports similar numbers to yours...

Also, deleting with IPs added is likely to be a lot more work
than deleting w/out, as your script does.

Created 500 veth in 12.954143 seconds (0.025908286 per interface).
Added IP addresses in 28.35679 seconds (0.05671358 per addr).
Deleted 500 veth in 21.503877 seconds. (0.043007754 per interface)

Created 100 veth in 1.06471 seconds (0.0106471 per interface).
Added IP addresses in 2.006418 seconds (0.02006418 per addr).
Deleted 100 veth in 2.983303 seconds. (0.02983303 per interface)


 From your script:
