Does libeatmydata COMPLETELY disables fsync?
How one writes to disk if the entire DE is running with it preloaded?
Manually invoking "sync" by command line maybe or just waiting for the "commit" interval (speaking of ext4 here)
Sorry for tyhe OT.

Why people keep crying about RAM usage all the time? If you are that much RAM limited, use DOS 6.x with 640k and be done with it. Seriously.
This is a market where i can't even find 2GB ram sticks anymore. The minimum you can put on a single channel pc is 4GB of ram. The MINIMUM. You can't buy less, unless you get second hand. And you cry about 300 or 400 MB ram for your desktop? Seriously?
RAM is supposed to be used. There is no point having 16GB or 32GB ram and having it all be empty. And the more RAM you use the less cpu cycles you tend to use as well. So stop crying and upgrade your PCs FFS.

I do not understand this mantra that unused RAM is wasted RAM. Inefficiently-used memory is worse than unused memory, because it negatively impacts other uses like the disk cache.
