The first thing that comes to mind for me is fsync working correctly
(i.e. actually waiting for the disk write) in Linux but not in Windows.
On a weird VM stack like you've got, it's not hard for that sort of
thing to go wrong.  Needless to say, if that's the issue then the
apparent performance win is coming at the cost of crash safety.

pg_test_fsync might help detect such a problem.
