A set of separate messages is received from at least some of the client computers in the client computer batch message transaction group. For each given separate message of the set of separate messages, a write is performed to a single message reception queue, and a determination is made regarding whether the given separate message was successfully written to the single message reception queue. Responsive to a determination that all messages of the set of separate messages were successfully written to the single message reception queue, all of the messages of the set of separate messages are written to disk as a single disk write.
