I remember people benchmarking this for purposes of video editing, ntfs consistently reads faster than fat32, but writes slower, for large files. There is also some cpu overhead from ntfs security. Turn off indexing for more speed.. I don't remember the percentages though, and that was NTFS4. It also has a lot less file fragmentation so that's a speed bonus too. You can also selectively compress files or folders. However, it also uses more memory so that may be a consideration if your lib only has 64mb. My affection for NTFS is from the faster recovery after a crash, and much fewer damaged files due to journaling. I guess that is "better performance" for most things. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2002 10:50 AM To: Libretto Subject: Re: overlay programs [LIB] Date: Fri, 3 May 2002 00:44:39 +0700 From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: overlay programs [LIB] > Microsoft says that NTFS performs better It's primarily a speed advantage?
