Subject: Re: [DNG] How to mount NTFS
I just mounted up an NTFS mount on my Ascii desktop.  It loaded up
fairly quickly.  Any other operation such as opening a folder with a lot
of entries took a very long time.  This is on a Seagate Baracuda 1TB
plugged into a generic drive dock and connected by USB 3.0.

I would say that the NTFS driver is not a speedy thing.  You might try
the noatime option and see if that speeds things up.
