Fair enough. I'm of the opinion that developers need to have their unit
tests run fast. If they aren't fast then your just not going to test as
much as you should. If your unit tests *have* to createdb then you have to
do whatever you have to do to get it fast. It'd probably be better if unit
tests don't create databases or alter tables at all though.
Regardless of what is going on on your dev box you really should leave fsync
on on your continuous integration, integration test, and QA machines.
They're what your really modeling your production on anyway.
