From our point of view, Java 8u181 is finally the awaited solution of the problems decribed in this thread - we have not received any complaints of our users since Java 8u181 GA-date.
I've gone up to Java 8u191 and havent experienced any major issues.
I do also know that other customers have updated to this version as well without reporting major issues such as this.
There is a minor bug brought about in this version of Java that we are currently aware of whereby vertical scrollbars in workflow windows overlap causing some content in last rows to be partially hidden.
