+<description>
+ <para>If Samba has been built with asynchronous I/O support,
+ Samba will not wait until write requests are finished before returning
+ the result to the client for files listed in this parameter.
+ Instead, Samba will immediately return that the write
+ request has been finished successfully, no matter if the
+ operation will succeed or not. This might speed up clients without
+ aio support, but is really dangerous, because data could be lost
+ and files could be damaged.
