Just to clarify the implications where, if you run with
synchronous=off and you take a power failure or an OS
crash in the middle of a transaction, then you run a
serious risk of ending up with a corruption database
file. 

However, (key point->) an application crash will not hurt 
the database.  

Since you have an alternate source of authoritative data
and since power failures and OS crashes are reasonably
infrequent, your decision to run with synchronous=off
may well be the right choice.
