All very interesting, but a small point has been forgotten hasnt it ? The way I read this thread is that until recentlly write-caching was enabled by default and has now been disabled (hence the original obseravtion of disc performance dropping). I havent noticed that FreeBSD has a bad reputation for loss of data in the event of am power outage, and my own experience backs this up. As so many people appear to have been running it this way by default until now you might have though that if it were a serious problem in reality then people would have noticed by now ? -pete.
