+ By default, <command>pg_checksums</command> will wait for all files
+ to be written safely to disk. This option causes
+ <command>pg_checksums</command> to return without waiting, which is
+ faster, but means that a subsequent operating system crash can leave
+ the updated data folder corrupt. Generally, this option is useful
+ for testing but should not be used on a production installation.
+ This option has no effect when using <literal>--check</literal>.
