This is a big can of worms that's probably OT for NANOG -- not to mention likely outside most readers' realm of experience. It _is_ an interesting field, though. I recommend the Morgan Kauffman book series as a good introduction. One also could argue the necessity and sufficiency of synchronous I/O in and of itself. There's a good deal of work, both published and strictly "in the lab" dealing with transactional commit mechanisms.
