Did you consider unlogged tables? https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-createtable.html#SQL-CREATETABLE-UNLOGGED The documentation says "considerably faster than ordinary tables" but "automatically truncated after a crash" which might fit your requirements. "Synchronous Commit" should be understood as transaction property and does not really work on a table level. Regards, Christoph -- Spare Space.
