does it really make great advantage the migration java 8 project to java 9 modularity taking into account the cost benefit?
which size of project would be worth applying modularity?

For migration, I wouldn't just look at sheer size. Migrating a 'big ball of mud' vs. migrating an already nicely decomposed system is a completely different story. In general, however, using the module system is beneficial in medium to large applications. That's where the benefits of strong encapsulation and explicit dependencies come out best.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
