I'll agree with your assessment of 5.x. The characterization of 6.0
and 6.1 is, IMO, inaccurate. We have one database server running 6.0
in production nonstop for nearly a year now. We have many systems
running 6.1 with great performance and stability.
There may be certain situations which 6.0 (indeed, any version) may
fail in, but that's why you need to test *your* sytem with *your*
software under *your* load to certify it as suitable for production.
I'm already evaluating 6.2 for our production and plan to move to it
shortly after release barring any failures we encounter. I'm
trusting that the bge/em driver issues will be resolved prior to
release, as those are just too important.
