HIPE has become more stable over the years and recent versions. Now I use it in production without any segmentation fault and an important performance boost. I am using the latest version:

RabbitMQ 3.6.10, Erlang 19.2.1

You can turn it on safely, but better use the last version you can.

About HIPE there are different opinions, someone uses HIPE without problems, but I'd be careful with it.

My suggestion is to test a lot in your environment before put it in production (Especially for mission critical applications).

You should use Erlang versions >= 19.2 because of (https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-205).

RabbitMQ can be tuned in different ways, and I'd start form there.

HiPE support has been dropped in Erlang 22. On 3.8.4 it is still possible to run it on Erlang 21.3.
