I put Updater 3 in almost right away, since I was already on 2 and close to rolling back to CF 5 due to the serious problems with the server hanging. I will say that this release appears more stable so far (4 days). It had been hanging on us almost daily (one day 4 times). After applying Updater 3, we had no problems for 2 days straight. Then yesterday, it hung :( I can't begin to describe how severely disappointed I was. Now, in fairness we were having some network trouble yesterday, so it's possible that queries were timing out or something and this wreaked havoc on the server. I'm not quite sure. But, I want to let those who may be thinking of going to production level with CF MX know that it may be a good idea to give it a month or so at least and see what kind of feedback comes in. I'm not yet convinced that CF MX with updater 3 is necessarily up to snuff just yet. I really don't want to be negative about this- but there's nothing worse than dealing with a crashing server (even if CFCs/web services/new security structure are 1000 times better to develop in), and I don't want others to have to deal with it needlessly.
