I moved to CIFS because SMB didn't work well for me, as well as did NFS. Both seems to stall in a way, I could never really reproduce. But CIFS is very stable over here. Never ever had a problem with it, whereas both NFS and SMB are likely to cause trouble at least once a week. Without log records, without any chance of recovery. Mostly hard-freezes.
