Re: LFS "smooth" syncer workaround/performance tuning addendum

I forgot to mention that this seems to be especially
beneficial if I'm
looking to disable write-back caching on a wd(4) device. 
Data is
written in much smaller chunks, so the backlog seems to be
much more
manageable.

I haven't tested this much, though.

"The frivolity and boredom which unsettle the
established order, the
vague foreboding of something unknown, these are the heralds
of
approaching change.  The gradual crumbling that left
unaltered the
face of the whole is cut short by a sunburst which, in one
flash,
illuminates the features of the new world."  --G.W.F.
