NetBSD on a database server - WAPBL, softdeps



Hello everyone,


Considering that WAPBL will, theoretically, negatively impact the performance of a database
("fsync(2) causes all outstanding metadata transactions to be committed to
    disk, introducing additional latency.  This can have an impact on data-
    base software and other software that calls fsync(2) often."),

and keeping in mind softdeps are scheduled to be removed in 6.0 (http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-announce/2008/12/14/msg000051.html), what is the recommended configuration, filesystem wise, for a database server running on NetBSD? Wouldn't running with "bare" UFS be too slow?
