Did you get to the bottom of what's really happening here?  If you're
using ntfs-3g (the FUSE module) there should be a process called
ntfs-3g (see 'ps ax' output).  If you're using ntfs3.ko (the kernel
module) then 'lsmod' output should show this.  We use and test ntfs-3g
extensively and have not seen any reports of corruption.

ntfs-3g is far more mature, and it's highly unlikely you'll notice any
speed difference unless you're copying gigantic files.
