iozone showed regressions for write and re-write in runs that include
fsync timings for small files (<8MB). Here's the command line used for
testing:

iozone -az -n 4k -g 2048m -y 1k -q 1m -e

I also ran fs_mark using the following command line:

fs_mark -S 1 -D 100 -N 1000 -d /mnt/test/fs_mark -s 65536 -t 1 -w 4096

I'll let you know if there are any regressions caused by this patch in
any of our other testing.

Cheers,
Jeff
