I've upgraded to 8.2rc1. I still receive fsync errors all the time, but I haven't had it freeze yet. With 8.1.5 I was able to reproduce the freeze very quickly, so this is a good sign! Only time will tell if it's truly resolved - but I'll post updates to this list either way.
I'm still open to testing the fsync fix that Tom proposed if I can get a patched exe.
