We're getting ready to create some new servers from scratch (format/install). We've been using 4.9 and 4.10 for a while now with no problems. We've got one 5.3 box setup for test purposes.
On this list I have seen comments about instability issues in 5.3. These servers need to be stable. Should we install 4.10/11? Or move up to 5.3?
If the servers need to be stable, and you've been using 4.10 and are satisfied with it, *and* you don't have time to test 5.3 to achieve a similiar level of confidence, go with 4.10/4.11. However, it sounds like you've had some time to test 5.3, and such testing ought to give you feedback on how 4.x versus 5.x performs for your particular workload, and you can make a decision from there.
I have a number of 4.x systems in production, and I won't upgrade them to 5 simply for the sake of updating, but new machines are getting 5.3.
