Then you don't understand the point of sync mode, and you shouldn't be

I understand exactly that and I don't disagree, except in the case where it is going to bring down the master (see my further reply). I now remember arguing about this a few years ago when we started down the sync path.

Anyway, perhaps this is just something of a knob that can be turned. We don't have to continue the argument. Thank you for considering what I was saying.

Sincerely,

JD
