Historically there were performance issues with NTFS-3G generally (or  
NTFS-3G for Mac OS X, I can't remember which).

AFAIR something a few months ago led to dramatic improvements and  
since then I have heard no-one mention performance.

 From what I gather second-hand, third-hand in IRC, NTFS-3G for Mac  
OS X will either:

  a) work very, very nicely

or

  b) not work at all.

Whether or nor that's hearsay, I should generally be prepared for the  
unexpected.

MacFUSE and NTFS-3G aside: http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/zfs/ 
wiki/issues shows that novel use of a file system (iTunes prior to  
7.6 with ZFS) may have unexpected quirks.

Good luck
Graham
