I upgraded my production box from 5.3 to 6.2BETA2 without incident as well. I was surprised that all my services started properly on the first boot (postfix; cyrus imap, apache22, postgres, mongrel(ruby on rails), and various others..) After the upgrade, rebuilding some of my ports improved the performance of my ruby on rails apps by a lot. I'm not sure if I am benefiting from improved SMP code compared to 5.3 or if it was due to something unrelated in the ports tree. This was on an older SMP Pentium 3 system which doesn't have any devices using the em driver and so far the system has been rock solid. Dan
