Hi,
I cannot tell how often I have said this already. I stay with the even branches
until the next even branch comes out. Currently, the machine here runs 8.3 and
will stick to 8 until 10.0 or 10.1 will arrive at the scene.
But for technical reasons, I have left one machine on 7 after the upgrade from 6
to 8 failed. It is a very old machine and some hardware support got dropped.
Erich

I am using 8.2 for a long time. And it works VERY well.
Any suggestion is appreciated!
This is an entirely subjective question and one that only you can answer.
For example, given the number of problem reports I'm seeing on the lists, I'm going to stick with the 8-STABLE branch for still a long time, likely until 9.1 or 9.2-RELEASE.
You may want to reflect on the features you currently use and whether they've been improved in 9.0-RELEASE or not (eg ZFS v28)
