If you list all fonts you have as FontPath directives in your
XF86Config-4, you won't need xfs - the X server will retrieve
the fonts it needs itself and won't bother xfs.
You could, however, modify XF86Config-4 to contain only
FontPath "unix/:7100"
which would hand all the work over to xfs.
Shortly:
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fs/config <= these fonts are served by xfs
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 <= the fonts listed here are accessed
directly by the X server, without querying xfs
