I am running 4.9 on 3 or 4 systems with out any problems. I chose to track stable initially (around 3.3 I think) because really good performance stuff was going in. I use the date command in cvsup to make sure I get repeatable results. Then I migrate system upgrades through as follows: test machine, 2nd dns, desktop, 1st dns, gateway, production servers. I am using a pentium 100 MHz for the test machine and do builds on my desktop which is an 800 MHz with SCSI. That has worked fine. If you only have one system, I think tracking 4.8 release + security is good advice. For as long as I have been doing this I think I have had one problem that perhaps was not not my fault.
