I poll on the side of using jumbo frames at home, and it Just Working with my menagerie of hardware. I suspect almost all the traffic on my LAN is TCP though.
I have jumbo frames enabled on my QNAP NAS which uses a LACP/802.3ad bond to a managed NetGear switch. My wired main devices are my iMac desktop and various Linux-based servers. Some have jumbo frames enabled, some don’t. Also running dual-stack IPv4/v6 across most devices, with 100/40 FTTH routed via an Apple Airport Time Capsule. Everything Just Works(tm) and my read/write speed to the NFS mounts on the QNAP is ~110MB/s or so, with Internet speeds hitting the practical maximum of ~11MB/s. YMMV.
