unfortunately there's fundamental issues with file operations on NT:
* you can't delete an opened file, which means every folder delete/move operation has to enumerate all descendents to acquire exclusive locks.
* every file operation goes through a filter driver (think virus scanners)
* the kernel parses path names, and (I think) maybe dispatches one operation per path element.
all of the above can't be fixed due to compatibility apparently. that's why WSL2 moved off of NTFS.
