Lever arch files for me, using ahnentafel numbers (and letters for siblings/children etc). This works well because if a file becomes too full it is easy to split it in a logical way. Wills and certs etc, filed in alphabetical order with a photocopy in the appropriate file.
I have a simple chart showing my direct ancestors which is a useful crib sheet and used to be stuck inside my desk where I could see it. It is now folded up in a box folder which houses all the scruffy bits of paper I have accumulated since I downsized and left the real stuff in my daughter's loft.
