+<h3 align=center>Release 4.2: Client replication environments</h3>
+<p>In previous Berkeley DB releases, replication clients always behaved as if
+<a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_TXN_NOSYNC">DB_TXN_NOSYNC</a> behavior was configured, that is, clients would
+not write or synchronously flush their log when receiving a transaction
+commit or prepare message. However, applications needing a high level
+of transactional guarantee may need a write and synchronous flush on
+the client. By default in the Berkeley DB 4.2 release, client database
+environments write and synchronously flush their logs when receiving a
+transaction commit or prepare message. Applications not needing such
+a high level of transactional guarantee should use the environment's
+<a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_TXN_NOSYNC">DB_TXN_NOSYNC</a> flag to configure their client database
+environments to not do the write or flush on transaction commit, as this
+will increase their performance. Regardless of the setting of the
+<a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_TXN_NOSYNC">DB_TXN_NOSYNC</a> flag, clients will always write and flush on
+transaction prepare.</p>
