Edit, compile time lag problem

  Many of our users follow the old fashioned edit,compile,link run
  method of code development. We have found thast one must wait a few
  seconds after quiting an edit before trying to compile - same for
  C and Fortran - otherwise the compiler uses the old copy of the file!
  
  Has anyone else seen this ? Can it be that the system takes a long time to
  flush the buffers to disk even though emacs or vi returns the user to
  the command prompt ?
