A ufs filesystem becomes exponentially slow with the number of files per directory.
As a rule of thumb, do not have more than 10000 files per directory!
If this is Solaris 10, zfs would be the better alternative for such a work load.
Your method works, and can be augmented with a -ls to show what's being deleted.
Terminate the -exec rm with a +, that reduces the numbers of forks, i.e. is more efficient. In effect it does rm file1 file2 file3 ... rather than rm file1; rm file2; rm file3; .... rm might prompt in certain conditions when it sees a terminal. rm -f prevents it.
