SPUG: 5.6.1 vs. 5.005

Perhaps this question is outdated, but I recently migrated one of my boxes from Linux2.4.x to FreeBSD4.3. I had been using perl5.6.1 flawlessly for quite some time now, but FreeBSD4.3 still relies on 5.005. My programs and the CPAN modules I use compile fine under 5.005.
However, I'm wondering if there are any signficant performance/implementation differences between 5.005 and 5.6.1 that would motivate me to upgrade to 5.6.1. Anyone know if 5.6.1 performs better, uses resources better, or something like that?
Thanks,
--B.
