I really will never ever understand why I did not find
the matching entry in CHANGES.txt earlier:
--------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGES IN CUPS V1.4b1
....
  - The scheduler now delays writing config and state files to
    reduce disk activity (STR #2684)
--------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry for the noise!
