I had a friend encounter the "nearly a brick" issue with the update, but he had skipped iOS 8 altogether on his 5S, as I recall. Went directly from 7.something to 9.0.

I've installed 9.0 on seven different iPhones (5S and 5c models) and iPads (iPad 2 up to latest Air, incl a couple of minis) and didn't encounter a single problem with any of them.

9.0 bricked my 5s with the 'slide to upgrade' stall. It was the 7 to 9 upgrade jump that seems to be the riskiest (I had no idea at the time). Had to do a combination of hard resets, restore(s) and applying the update to 9.01 to get it up and running again.
Took a good long time, but not particularly high on the panic scale.

Edit: Running into glitches. Missing titles for phone numbers. Distinctive ringtones set for numbers set back to default. Disappointed, pretty far below my 'It just works' expectations.
