I have processed more that 600 brains with both versions in the last weeks
and the only difference I'm seeing between version 5.2.0 and 5.1, besides
the obvious new features, is processing time.

Version 5.2 is 10% faster than 5.1 in an Amazon EC2 instance.

Besides that there's no visible difference in terms of cortical thickness,
volumes, etc.

If you have access to computer resources to spare you can run recon-all of
both versions in some well known database of images and do a more formal
test.
