Yes, the lessons I took from that presentation were to use a shorter piece
of string and buy larger bottles of gin though I'm willing to admit that I
may have got the wrong end of the stick.

First of all I'd like to have the full picture of your performance: Log 
file sync might be 57% of the wait time, but how much of the response 
time is wait time?

Second, Log File Sync means Commit; So if your system is waiting a lot 
for commits there are two things you can do: Fewer commits (changes to 
applications) or faster commits (hardware striping, etc.).

No changes to the log buffer will help here (except perhaps making it 
smaller, as Connor McDonald so brilliantly showed during the funniest 
presentation I've ever seen in my life at UKOUG in Birmingham). If the 
log buffer is being flushed constantly, it's better to make it small so 
that it doesn't have to go through the whole thing every time.
