I can also confirm this behaviour, the scattered "system" blocks cause fragmentation by limiting the amount of continuous free space. They don't seem to dissapear after deleting the files, but they where definitely created after copying stuff from ubuntu with ntfs-3g. I will do a metadata image as soon as possible.
