| 34 | VFS module keeps track of the amount of data written to a file and synchronizes it to disk when a specified amount accumulates.

| 37 | is useful in two circumstances. First, if you have very precious data, the impact of unexpected power loss can be minimized by a small commit:dthresh value. Secondly, write performance can be improved on some systems by flushing file data early and at regular intervals.
