Opinions on interesting VFS calls

I'm still tinkering on a vfsstats tool in my spare time, and I've got a 
few questions for those interested:

1. What are the top ten most interesting vfs calls for statistics purposes?

2. How important is it to *not* change the statfs structure? (I know 
this breaks a lot of tools, I've tried it already)

3. Is it ok for me to use the f_spare[10] slot in statfs for this?

4. If 4 is OK, then is 10 enough for storing the most important calls? 
If it isn't, then I'm stuck breaking the statfs struct, right?

Thanks!
Eric
