I've recently had difficulties with hfs+. I used the debian
package hfsprogs, including fsck.hfsplus to manage an
external hfs+ formatted USB drive. The drive would
often get shut down in a "dirty" state, limiting me to
read-only access.

fsck.hfsplus -p would reset the "dirty" flag when it worked,
but it worked only intermittently. More often the process would
hang without releasing the device. This is with a recent
kernel and bleeding-edge (sid, unstable) debian
distribution.

I wouldn't be concerned about speed so much as being
interoperable.
