There's no requirement : that a filesystem reclaim empty space immediately. You really shouldn't be : using fastupdates on nearly full filesystems -- it doesn't handle that : situation particularly well. Nearly full? It is a 32M file system with 15M free. That's not nearly full. The problem is that the update rate is faster than the softupdate code can deal with.
