Is there a proposal somewhere for eliminating the need for fsyncs on a slave? As I understand, MWL#164 still requires the fsync.

Do you mean for MariaDB? My intention is that MDEV-26 will make the slave crash-safe without the need for fsync() if no --log-slave-updates. If binlog is enabled, then fsync() will still be needed to prevent the binlog and the engine from getting out of sync. - Kristian.
