How many RAM does the box have on CPU and in RAID?

What is happening if you do on an other root console
something like:
while (1)
do
  sync
  sleep 1
done   

(IOW: force disk caches to flush immediately, constantly?)


BTW: 
"pulling" the data is almost always faster that "pushing"

Is that true for rsync too?
