Forgetting about tool life and cut quality for a minute.
3500mm/min is painfully slow, and will get old very quickly. Imo, there's really no excuse for a machine to be designed to have a maximum speed of 3.5m/min.

Now, yes, you can cut at 3m/min with a 2 flute cutter, at 10,000-12,000 rpm, and get good results.

Fwiw, I cut 19mm melamine at about 25m/min every day - on a $100,000 machine.
