Several have posted how to bypass it. I'll pose the opposite side: Usually, applications call fsync() because they're pretty sure that if the disk and in-memory copies aren't lined up, a crash at that point could result in data loss and/or corruption. So sqlite calls fsync() - probably because if it *doesn't*, and your system crashes/reboots, you *will* lose that sqlite database. Your data, your decision.
