Performance doesn't work like that for file systems because typically 
the dominant factors are the file system design and the quality of the 
implementation. 

Even the still unoptimized ntfs-3g driver can far outperform other 
kernel file systems in streaming read/write speed (maximum ever 
measured sustained write speed is 902 MByte/s) and IO ops on Linux.
