Maybe you should introduce a big info box
I already reported that into the Gnome Bugtracker:

why do we need this perceieved speed up? if sync causing it to be
slower than Windows or MacOS? I think it isn't, and async really is
only faster if you make multiple changes to the same files in a
session. how often does async actualy commit to disk anyway? if I
make an edit, asave, then wait
And what's the answer to this senario?
- user is typing a document, saving work as she goes
- power goes out (most desktops don't have a UPS)
- power comes on and finds all those saves she was doing weren't actualy

how is this faster? she now has to re-write the whole
Windows recognizes the difference between a USB mass storage device that's a
smaller removable device (i.e. flash drive) vs a larger device (i.e.
external hard drive). It sets sync on smaller devices and async on larger
devices. I feel we should do the same, also.
I would rather lose some of my
I'm very happy to read that there's news on the kernel side.
I understand that you distro guys can just try to make the best out the
situation. However I'm still convinced that for the average user the
sync-variant would have been the better one, regardless of it's drawbacks.
Nevertheless,
@Dietmar: I agree that time is important for people. That's why most of them
will certainly appreciate the factor 10 to 100 speedup when using async, and
will appreciate not destroying their Flash memory, too.

I couldn't understand why this step backward (regarding usability) was done.

Excellent work Martin. I'm new to Linux and it is the first time that I see the
enormous benefits of 'open' software development. Tested the fix with Dapper
Drake Flight 5. Very nice, thank you,
