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 24903.540 ops/sec 40 usecs/op
fdatasync 21800.982 ops/sec 46 usecs/op
fsync 20762.443 ops/sec 48 usecs/op
fsync_writethrough n/a
open_sync 23394.041 ops/sec 43 usecs/op
Compare file sync methods using two 8kB writes:
(in wal_sync_method preference order, except fdatasync is Linux's default)
open_datasync 12301.561 ops/sec 81 usecs/op
fdatasync 17146.136 ops/sec 58 usecs/op
fsync 15853.102 ops/sec 63 usecs/op
fsync_writethrough n/a
open_sync 11182.711 ops/sec 89 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 18419.537 ops/sec 54 usecs/op
2 * 8kB open_sync writes 11215.533 ops/sec 89 usecs/op
4 * 4kB open_sync writes 6250.670 ops/sec 160 usecs/op
8 * 2kB open_sync writes 3245.170 ops/sec 308 usecs/op
16 * 1kB open_sync writes 1648.117 ops/sec 607 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 17929.396 ops/sec 56 usecs/op
write, close, fsync 17782.500 ops/sec 56 usecs/op
Non-sync'ed 8kB writes:
write 421898.978 ops/sec 2 usecs/op
