Matthew Flatt 569af52ffc raco setup: turn off synchronous mode for doc database
Synchronous mode implies fsync(), which makes updates *much*
slower on some machines, such as the DrDr machine. The doc
database doesn't need to survive a catastrophic failue
(such as a power failure or OS crash), so turn synchronous
mode off.
