Jens doesn't like the sqllite problem. Ted and Linus don't like the latency problem. Why not make that SYNC_ALL option a 1/0 option in /proc/sys/vm/sync_all or something of the like? That sort of change is pretty small, and quick to make, right? This would help, at least until the real problem is found. Sorry if I'm stepping out of bounds. :P
