Well, right now JIT is certainly beta-quality code, so you ought
to expect bugs.  We have an open item at
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_11_Open_Items
to decide whether to ship v11 with JIT enabled by default or not,
but I don't expect that decision will be taken until much closer
to release.  Until then, I think you should be doing (4) so that
we can gather data to inform the eventual decision.
