Hi Kim,

Sorry for the late response, I've been heads down the last couple of
weeks and haven't been keeping an eye on 9fans.

I've had a lot of luck using venti from plan9port with fossil running
natively on my plan9 fileserver. I keep a directory on sources (now
9p.io) with some notes and example scripts on how to make this work:
http://9p.io/sources/contrib/stallion/venti/. The biggest benefit to
this configuration is it makes offsite backups a breeze from the Linux
host.

I've been using this configuration since 2013 without any data
loss/corruption that I'm aware of. My venti store is around 31GB
uncompressed with 12/32GB physical used. I've been quite happy - I'd
be glad to answer any questions you may have.

HTH,
Steve
