So having gone from Drupal 5.2 to 5.3 only last week, Drupal 5.4 came out this week and I thought I had better streamline my update process, putting some stuff in place to make the process smooth, quick, easy and *reversible* ... just in case. Since Drupal 5.5 came out while I was sleeping last night, I can now test my own instructions and time the entire update process ... see below for the results.
