Hi Jeremy,

It would be nice if you could tell ZFS to turn off fsync() for ZIL
writes on a per-zpool basis. That being said, I'm not sure there's a
consensus on that...and I'm sure not smart enough to be a ZFS
contributor. :-)

The behavior is a reality we had to deal with and workaround, so I
posted the instructions to hopefully help others in a similar boat.

I think this is a valuable discussion point though...at least for us. :-)

Best Regards,
Jason

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to allow the administrator to disable
ZFS from issuing the write cache enable command during a commit?
(assuming expensive high end battery backed cache etc etc)
