Actually, I've tried -SECURITY ... my servers crashed more often :) And have you ever tried to get someone to investigate/fix something that is considered a 'dead line'? The thing with -SECURITY is that its exactly that ... no bug fixes go into it, only critical security stuff ... so, if I were to report a bug on -SECURITY, it would most likely get ignored, since there is a very good chance that its already fixed in -STABLE, but nobody is going to back-patch it ...
