The sync option in /etc/fstab can achieve this I believe ; I did not
tested it myself.

Regarding performance, yes, it slowed down writes, but I prefer a slower
system, with consistent files, as my users do. BTW, it is only when
creating numerous files in a short time, like when extracting tar files,
that our server slows down.
