Very unlikely. The code for ntfs3 (I call it that because that is its name) is not "new". It has been around for years and was based on the actual NTFS specifications from Microsoft. It was a commercial product which has now been made free open source and added to the Linux Kernel. Certainly not untested.I'd be willing to make a small wager that that is the source of the OP's issue(s). That somehow, the new driver (what you are calling "ntfs3") is now the default, and as is the case with most "new" things in the world of computing, the bugs aren't completely out of it yet. This situation will give the impression that the new version doesn't work very well.On bookworm you could try changing that ntfs-3g to ntfs3. That will use the newer ntfs3 kernel driver instead of the old ntfs-3g userspace driver. You should see an improvement in performance.
As for if it is the default for NTFS file systems, I doubt it. Unfortunately I don't have a NTFS formatted drive around to test that theory with.
