A thought - why not use rsync to copy the files each way? That way,

a)shutdown would be much quicker.

b)you'd have the advantage of being able to commit a saved file to disk.

Also, doesn't noflushd do something relatively similar?

I'm impressed by the idea - although I'm afraid to say I wouldn't trust
my current system enough.
