If you’re running it thru the FUSE driver perhaps…proprietary ntfs drivers absolutely rip
Also make sure last access time is turned off, that is a nice auditing feature for opsec, but it slows things down for the normal user. It should be off by default above 256GB drive sizes.
Not sure if it’s gotten better in the last few years, but it’s also incredibly slow. Like orders of magnitude slower than ext3 or HFS.

I meant in Windows 🙂. I guess Windows XP, in particular.
last access time
I’ve never thought of APFS as slow. Didn’t realize it was.
Yeah that was kind of a weird take, I’ve never felt it being slow nor heard it is from anywhere else.
Oops, replied to wrong comment! I was talking about NTFS.
