Hi. Wondering what sort of results are people seeing on modern servers when running pg_test_fsync?
Thanks,

O_DIRECT supported on this platform for open_datasync and open_sync.
Compare file sync methods using one 8kB write:
(in wal_sync_method preference order, except fdatasync is Linux's default)
open_datasync 15984.370 ops/sec 63 usecs/op
fdatasync 16100.336 ops/sec 62 usecs/op
fsync 15109.988 ops/sec 66 usecs/op
fsync_writethrough n/a
open_sync 16849.201 ops/sec 59 usecs/op
Compare file sync methods using two 8kB writes:
(in wal_sync_method preference order, except fdatasync is Linux's default)
open_datasync 8638.443 ops/sec 116 usecs/op
fdatasync 12036.359 ops/sec 83 usecs/op
fsync 11807.447 ops/sec 85 usecs/op
fsync_writethrough n/a
open_sync 8532.569 ops/sec 117 usecs/op
Compare open_sync with different write sizes:
(This is designed to compare the cost of writing 16kB in different write
open_sync sizes.)
1 * 16kB open_sync write 14205.165 ops/sec 70 usecs/op
2 * 8kB open_sync writes 8506.969 ops/sec 118 usecs/op
4 * 4kB open_sync writes 4979.092 ops/sec 201 usecs/op
8 * 2kB open_sync writes 2658.138 ops/sec 376 usecs/op
16 * 1kB open_sync writes 1343.359 ops/sec 744 usecs/op
Test if fsync on non-write file descriptor is honored:
(If the times are similar, fsync() can sync data written on a different
descriptor.)
write, fsync, close 13331.347 ops/sec 75 usecs/op
write, close, fsync 13435.198 ops/sec 74 usecs/op
Non-sync'ed 8kB writes:
write 297771.626 ops/sec 3 usecs/op
