At least on a FAT partition Windows looks for changes with every access. The problem is, if both systems access the file system _at the same time_. This will most probably end in disaster. How a vmware Linux would behave on a linux host, with async mount, I never tried. Also an NTFS-partition could behave worse, I neither checked this one.
