I am still not buying it :) I need to research this to satisfy myself. I can understand that the writes come from memory to disk during a txg write for async, and that is the behavior I see in testing.
But for sync, data must be committed, and a SSD/ZIL makes that faster because you are writing to the SSD/ZIL, and not to spinning disk. Eventually that data on the SSD must get to spinning disk.
