"Assume your 28MB/sec performance is the fastest ntfs-3g can run on your computer. Usb-2 maxes out a little below that, so usb-2 was the bottleneck. Usb-3 is a lot faster, so now ntfs-3g is your bottleneck."
Maybe showing it as a table, max speed vs technology, will help The point we're trying to get across to Basil is that even using the fastest file system, if you're going through usb2 then it doesn't matter. Hey, Basil, Try This: run timing on those large writes to a variety of file systems on such a drive over a usb-2 connection. Then the same on a usb-3 connection.
