There are very little platform specific notes in the regular documentation. Tbe best sync settings for performance and safety tend to differ on various platforms. There is a win32 faq; in the current state of things win32 specific notes belongs there. I think a reasonable case could be made to move various platform specific things into the regular documentation in a special section.
