I personnally love ZFS and use it massively on my server, but for a
desktop I think this is a real overkill. Also I don't have so much RAM
to waste for that. I think UFS is enough, however as a modern operating
system I don't expect any data corruption by default using SU+J.

The filesystem domain is not a thing I really know deeply, so thanks for
all you explanation.

PS: the power failure is not the only way that does not shutdown cleanly
the system. There are kernel panics, crash and such of course. Those
which appears sometimes too.
