you would get faster performance if you formatted the drive ext3 and then
installed the ext3 filesystem driver for windows. fuse is is pretty slow
and is terrible with I/O speed while ext3 is descent. the ext3 driver for
windows is a native filesystem pluggin so it runs just like ntfs(though a
bit less optimized).
