The /sys/src/fs file server is not intended for use in new systems.
We don't even use it much inside Bell Labs anymore. It's included
in the distribution mainly for those who must maintain old servers.
It's true that fossil had stability problems early on (though thanks
to venti I've never lost any data), but it is pretty solid now.
I fixed some performance bugs related to sync and remove
recently, but otherwise we haven't been significant changes.
The only outstanding problem I know about in fossil is that
it doesn't handle filling up gracefully. But neither does the
old file server.
