Benchmarking with NTFS (or MSDOSFS) as the underlying FS doesn't make sense (unless you want to measure the performance of NTFS or MSDOSFS), since it's slow (for NTFS you should be happy to at least be able to read something, there's no open documentation about it available). So I suggest you try with a good FS (ufs 1 or 2) only and don't bother about NTFS, to make sure the FS isn't the bottleneck.
