Note: the driver was merged to the upstream kernel in 5.15. So this package is useless for Arch official kernels.
If you want bleeding edge updates, use ntfs3-dkms-git.

I made some test using bonnie and pts, this driver seems to be much faster than ntfs-3g

http://moodle.math.sk/~doug/bonnie_ntfs-3g.html

(disregard the read tests, since they were done from page cache)

edit: compilebench in pts, now includes native ext4, the paragon ntfs3 driver performance is comparable

Well, regardless, here is an update. Now the package has 2 backport patches.
Because <5.12 users will still need both patches in the future.

Hanabishi commented on 2021-07-29 20:21 (UTC)

Seems like the only change in v27 is for 5.14 kernel version. Backporting is literally equal to reverting back to v26 state.
So the package update to v27 is not possible until Arch mainstream kernel will be updated to 5.14.

@yanpas, well, the best way I think is to reply to the ntfs3 message at lkml https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210402155347.64594-1-almaz.alexandrovich@paragon-software.com/#R

@Hanabishi It's new Western Digital USB hard drive that I've bought today to do backups. CrystalDiskInfo and Windows shows it's 100% healthy. ntfs-3g works as a charm. I was copying about 160GB of various photos and videos, there are a lot of Cyrillic paths BTW.

Do you know how to send my feedback to Paragon?

Hanabishi commented on 2021-07-25 15:21 (UTC)

@yanpas, looks like the disk failure. Are you sure it's ok? You tested it with ntfs-3g and in Windows?

Don't recommend using with rsync and writing, tons of errors in dmesg:

@yanpas, maybe just the mount time is long for some reason. Try to disable automount on boot (noauto) and measure the mount time when you manually mounting it.

yanpas commented on 2021-07-24 15:02 (UTC)

@Hanabishi 5.13.4. Actually I faced this every kernel release for the last several months. While booting I see two lines in console (systemd version and some other line) and hdd led constantly flickering.

Hanabishi commented on 2021-07-24 14:57 (UTC)

@yanpas, which kernel are you using?

yanpas commented on 2021-07-24 14:20 (UTC) (edited on 2021-07-24 14:22 (UTC) by yanpas)

Slow boot

I use this driver in fstab:

    /dev/disk/by-uuid/XXXXXXXXXXX /home/me/.D/ ntfs3 rw,users,uid=me,gid=me,dmask=027,fmask=137,nofail 0 0

For some reason the system has started booting much slower (fsck is disabled according to fstab). Does anyone know the reason? dmesg log:
