On VMS, I believe the I/O is async by default (probably via $QIO calls), so there's no benefit there. This is from memory, as I'm not able to confirm or deny that with a quick search.

On HP/UX, you can't use async with a cooked volume, and in MetaLink 139272.1 it says not to use multiple DBWRs with async ("not recommended"). It doesn't state wether or not this is generic advice or platform specific.

HTH! :)
