And no, updates will not need to be synched to disk to be shared.

That wasn't my concern.

In general, unless you explicitly ask for a sync, it will happen only once the file is closed by all processes or in the event that the VM system needs to reclaim the RAM for something else.

I'm not going to explicitly ask for a sync, but there's the update(8) process which calls sync(2) every 30 seconds. Isn't that going to force things to be written to disk?
