I suspect that if I crank my I/O subsystem to do flushes no more often than once in 40 seconds and lie to fsync/fdatasync, my Threadripper setup is also going to run circles around my M2 Air. (Heck, I suspect my XPS13 will be almost on par.)

But then again, the M2 Air has this bulky UPS called „laptop battery”, so they can afford such little lies as long as the OS itself won’t shit itself and die randomly. Granted, it happens rarely, but nevertheless.
