https://blog.confirm.ch/lazyupdate-feature-4-0-kernel/ It looks like all the access times that are in cache are getting flushed to disk. So there are two options you can pass to sync. Maybe experiment with just flushing the filedata instead of everything so that the time modifications are not flushed as well? But no, you can't just flush a partition. What you can do is sync particular files with `fsync`. - Adam
