Personally, in production I prefer being backlevel.
In general 4.16 is fine. Been on it since April 20. Aside from a slight init delay on a SuperMicro H8DM8-2/H8DM8-2 dual-quad-core Opteron box, there have been no issues. There the only issue there is an init issue with: perf: interrupt took too long (10078 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 19800 ... Which then causes the kernel loop through each core in some type of NMI handler self-test dumping all registers until it figures out there really is nothing wrong and then proceeds to boot fine. Another quad-quad-core Opetron Supermicro board doesn't experience the same delay. Both boxes boot without any such problem on 4.14 -- so it looks like some oddball bios or firmware issue. I have encountered no operational issues otherwise (servers provide dhcp w/dynamic DNS updates, bind, apache, mysql, postfix/dovecot, hylafax/avantfax, vsftp, etc..) -- David C.
