Unfortunately we can't yet quantify the impact on the hardware I care
about (ordinary consumer PCs with non-NCQ SATA disks), because Linux
hosts don't *yet* implement O_SYNC or fdatasync properly.

I would expect the performance difference to be much more significant
after those are implemented on the host.
