Some weird performance issues I've noticed... (wrote over at NTFS-3G forums as well)

I've seen this problem with both MacFUSE 0.1.9 + NTFS-3G 20070118 and
MacFUSE 0.2.1 + NTFS-3G 20070207.

The write speed to the NTFS partition is pretty slow. It seems to be around
700 to 900KB/s after several measurements when copying single file. Note
that it's an external hard disk that had sustained copying speed of 15MB/s
when using HFS+.

Then when I attempt copying of two (or more) files, as in selecting two files
in Finder and dragging them to NTFS volume, the speed drops to around
200KB/s.

Then it stays there. It'll retain that speed even if I copy a single file again.
I've tried unmounting / mounting, but it doesn't make any difference.

I wonder what's going on?
