I've got one empty hfs+ partition on an external USB3 HDD MBR drive.
This empty partition is around 1/3 TiB large and used are around 1/3
GiB. I don't know, if it does increase proportional.

I don't know. Btw. performance of a file system depends on several
factors. For example, one file system is faster when handling more
short, than long files and for another file system it's vice versa.
IOW a file system often isn't per se faster or slower. The field of
application makes the difference.

How about security? Exfat is not journaled. It seems to be needed to use
hfs+ non-journaled for Linux access, even while it is a journaled file
system, so in this regards it makes no difference, but as already
pointed out, hfs+ supports quasi Linux compatible Unix permissions.
