We were not mentioning to advise to set non durable options for
production use, but for development, which I think it's more than
accetable, considering that I got a 70% boost, which together with the
django 1.8 --keepdb option and a bit of mocking, got my entire huge
test suite run in less than one minute, while running tests for
specific modules now (thank God) take seconds.
This is immensely important if you are doing TDD or refactoring often.

I also don't like the idea of believing django users are too stupid to
understand that this advice si valid for development only. Generally
python and django users are intelligent enough to properly read the
docs and understand what's written on it.
