I will also note that the write volume changed significantly with two different config changes. To uber-simplify my original email: "normal" volume - $ActionFileEnableSync off & all actions include "-" in front : 2-3mbps ~30 iops $ActionFileEnableSync off & all actions exclude "-" in front : 5mbps (~100% increase) (iops unknown) $ActionFileEnableSync on & all actions exclude "-" in front : 9mbps (~300-400% increase) ~900 iops I am using a mix of static and dynamic filename actions and some actions use format templates as well. I suppose there could be one of those combinations which is not honoring the global $ActionFileEnableSync configuration. Again, I need to do some testing because at this point I'm just making guesses without much information.
