It.. depends.

Historically NFS has had many flaws on different O/S-es. Many of these issues appear to have been resolved over time and I have not seen it being referred to as "Nightmare File System" for decades.

However, depending on many factors NFS may still be a bad choice. In our setup, for example, using a large SQLite database through NFS turns out to be up to 10 times as slow as using a "real" disk.

The SQLite FAQs warn about bigger problems than slowness: https://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q5

So there's nothing wrong with NFS: people just remember old, buggy implementations. Do you think TernFS is somehow with these old bugs?

It sounds like you're saying it use to be bad (fair enough) and there are use cases where it's bad (also fair enough). But I feel like that describes most software as it goes through growing pains and people figure out where it's useful.
