Yes, it's in experimental. But 41 is *not* the next version.
The current stable version is 38.3.0esr-1~deb8u1. But...

There are some issues in version 38 (also present in some older
versions), and some of them are fixed in version 41, the main one
being the problem with videos that autoplay:

Electrolysis should also solve some problems such as a tab freezing
the whole browser, and one needs a more recent version than 38 (IIRC,
41 should be OK). But I haven't tested yet.
