Yes, on ext3, an fsync() syncs the entire filesystem. It has to, because
all the metadata for each file is shared - it's just a string of
journallable blocks. Similar story with the data, in ordered mode.
So effectively, fsync()ing five files one time each is performing 25 fsync()s.
One fix (

Quoting John Madden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
The disks are quite fast. bonnie++, for example, shows writes at
over 300MB/s.

nothing ever goes into iowait. The bottleneck is elsewhere...
