I still run into occassional issues (unable to track down) where castfs
"hangs" using 100% of my CPU indefinitely, usually on a `sorcery
rebuild`, but any cast of a long list of spells might cause it, but not
always.

Overall, I prefer castfs, but feel it isn't polished enough for forcing
it on everyone.
