He's got a point though. The system can only soften the blow of 128 system calls vs 1 so much. Try running dd with a bs of 1, it's slow. I only suggested a tiny block size since it seemed necessary which was my mistake too, from leaving sync in the conv options.

sync(2) System Calls sync(2)
NAME
sync - update super block
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
void sync(void);
DESCRIPTION
The sync() function writes all information in memory that should be on disk, including modified super blocks, modified inodes, and delayed
block I/O.
Unlike fsync(3C), which completes the writing before it returns, sync() schedules but does not necessarily complete the writing before
returning.
USAGE
The sync() function should be used by applications that examine a file system, such as fsck(1M), and df(1M), and is mandatory before
rebooting.
