This is the exact scenario I had when I ran fossil + venti with ephemerial
snapshots enabled, are you sure you don't have them on?

try
	fossil/conf /dev/sd??/fossil | grep snaptime

This is an example of ephemerial snapshots enabled:
	fsys main snaptime -s 15 -a 0400 -t 3600

and disabled:
	fsys main snaptime -s none -a 0400 -t none
