I did also an in memory test on a T9300@2.5, with disk I/O completely

tmpfs:    975 MB/sec
ntfs-3g:  889 MB/sec  (note, this FUSE driver is not optimized yet)
ext3:     675 MB/sec

Am I write in guessing that this test involved copying a single large
file, with no seeks?  What happens if you try benchmarking unpacking a
kernel source tar.bz2 file?  My guess is that ntfs-3g won't look as
good.  :-)
