[Opensim-users] MYSQL upgrade

[Chris]

Thanks Chris, Marcel and Luisillo for your help.  I wanted to be 
cautious.  I do make backups using the mysqldump.  Right now while 
building and getting ready only a few members actually log on.  But the 
inventory is growing and didn't want sudden issues with items not being 
found.

No problem at all. I did not notice any speed increase myself by 
updating to 5.5.x ... I would say that if you aren't having any trouble 
with 5.1.x or do not have need of features / security updates in 5.5.x 
that 5.1.x might not have; I would say stick to what is working for you =)
