This approach works well. You just need to remember to shut down the
database and start it back up again with fsync
Many thanks Mark,
I will consider fsync=off only to do an initial load, not for a database normal
operation.
I was just thinking about this hipotetical scenario:
a) a restore database operation
b) fsync off
c) write-back on (IDE)
As I could understand, in this sceneraio, it´s normal the IDE dr

Hi,
I would like to know if my supposition is right.
