Ah-hah. The win32 hackers should confirm this, but my recollection is that sync/fsync are no-ops under Cygwin (one of the several reasons we would never recommend that port for production use). So this would fit the assumption that the 7.4 code was simply not syncing.
Sounds reasonable. However, I don't see the same performance hit while doing bulk database operations (ie: inserts, deletes, updates). Is that expected behavior? Do vacuum operations fsync()/_commit() more often?
I think you have other problems around, see the post where I did some tests.
