Wasn't fsync caught "lying" a while ago? And disks as well, to inflate performance numbers?

Or have I not kept up? I guess SSDs can probably hit their numbers & still guarantee data is truly flushed from every volatile cache...

I don't think fsync was lying. It just assumed disks were telling the truth ...
