What is the best branching strategy to use when you want to do continuous integration?

Release Branching - Unstable Trunk:

or

Feature Branching - Stable Trunk:

Does it make sense to use both of these strategies together? As in, you branch for each release but you also branch for large features?

Does one of these strategies mesh better with continuous integration? Would using continuous integration even make sense when using an unstable trunk?
