There is no option to turn the sync off. The option you are probably thinking about is the auto-sync. This is an full sync that gets scheduled once-a-day and can wake the device from sleep to do. It is intended to be run when you aren't using the device to update everything.

There are other syncs happening at other times. When you open a purchased kepub, it syncs the reading status in case you have read the book on another device. When you open the Pocket list, the articles are refreshed. There is a sync happening when you open the book list, but I'm not sure what it does.

I don't think I've noticed a sync after a restart except when upgrading firmware. As the sync is stopped when the firmware is downloaded and installed, an entry is added to the config file to indicate a sync should be done. This is mainly for the daily auto-sync so that if an upgrade happens in the middle of the night, the sync is done ready for the next day.
