Would this be the xfs_asynd chewing up CPU time bug? If that's the one, it was just spinning and didn't actually cause "problems" except that the load went berserk. In either case, there have been bugs with*every file system* I've used with large volumes, but XFS remains my goto file system for all large volumes as it is the best performance/stability match out there.

no, this bug actually caused a big chunk of directories to disappear after a power failure event. I might be wrong about 6.3, it could have been 6.2 or something.

I agree, XFS is my goto linux file system for large volumes. ZFS is my other favorite, but I still don't trust it on Linux.
