I personally prefer Percona Server 5.6 (atm I'm using 5.5).
One of the best features in my opinion is InnoDB Compressed Tables.

Percona Server has better scalability under load.
anyway I would really suggest you to upgrade.
PS: dbmail runs more or less stable now.

5.5 is clearly faster and stable over years in the meantime - I even
forgot which year we switched but it was painless

Betreff: [Dbmail] Any reason to pick MySQL 5.5 over MySQL 5.1 for dbmail?
Apologies for the pick of the brain but Im setting up a replacement
for
our production server and Im wondering about whether its time to kick
MySQL into the long grass and use MySQL 5.5 instead. Weve been using
MySQL
5.1 for years and the old adage if it aint broke hasnt changed over
the
years.
Im going to set the new machine up as a slave for a week or two to
watch it
burn in and then swap it over and of course as you are meant to upgrade
slaves first when going from 5.1 to 5.5 this is the opportunity to
upgrade
versions if anyone thinks it worthwhile for dbmail.
I was a little tempted by MariaDB but after the recent bug that was
mentioned on this list Im slightly put off.
