note that there is a serious (but simple) bug in cfs that results is
(small amounts) of data loss.  the patch and description can be found
here:

  http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/30120

also, there's a pr to upgrade cfs to the 1.4.1 release, although this
shouldn't have any functional changes from 1.4.0.beta2 on freebsd.  that
can be found here:

  http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/29638

I use cfs heavily every day and have a 1.5G cfs filesystem.  The only
issue I've had was the bug above.

cheers,
