Suya, I don't see any more details to investigate here. Log File Sync of 40ms is just 'slow' in current environments. This is pure physical write IO - so you must go any way to make your physical write IO faster - OR reduce the number of commits in your application. I don't see any other path to resolve this issue - maybe others do?
