FRM File Corruption.

Hi All,

Don't know whether its a defect or intentionally left in Mysql for
Performance reasons. One of steps done during creation of table in Mysql
is creation of FRM file. 
I have noticed in the code that after writing the data into the frm
file its not explicitly flushed to the disk. The updates to the file
might be in the memory till file system takes care of flushing them in
to the disk. If we crash or kill the Mysql sever in this time  interval
(after updates are done before these updates are flushed into the disk),
These FRM files are getting corrupted. Is this expected behaviour?


Thanks,
Srini.
