Thanks Avi, I am still trying to reconcile the your statement with the potential data risks and the numbers observed. My read of your response is that the guest sees a consistent view - the data is commited to the virtual disk device. Does a synchronous write within the guest trigger a synchronous write of the virtual device within the host?
Yes.
