Richard,

I'm not sure you wrote to the right forum. MacFuse is a file system 
framework and it doesn't handle any NTFS volumes. It's NTFS-3G which 
does. 

But answering to your question, yes, performance could be drastically 
improved. Our current write performance record is 1.375 GByte/sec. 

Btw, did you also try the performance improved NTFS-3G for OS X driver 
at http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com/ ?

Additionally we also have a high-performance NTFS-3G driver what consumer 
electronic device makers use on Linux.
