Reasons for not using G1 GC?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Using G1 GC for Elasticsearch was discouraged. As far as I can see the main argument was instability / buggy G1 code (see older Java changelogs). Nowadays G1 seems to be solid.

Are there good reasons nowadays for NOT using Java 8 with G1 in ES6? Thanks!

Where can I find info on the status of G1GC in Lucene and ES?
