Wordpress 3.2 seems to be faster and cleaner looking then WordPress 3.1.x. It is also seems to have a nicer control panel.
 
does upgrading to 3.2 mess with anything on 3.1?
 
It should not, but it is best to backup your Wordpress folder/directory, and database before you update to WP 3.2 to be on the safe side.

But, make sure you're using php 5 and MySQL 5 before you update since 3.2 is no longer compatible with php 4 and MySQL 4.
 
It's very simple. All you have to do is hit the upgrade link in the Wordpress 3.1 Admin Dashboard.
 
It only takes a minute or two to update WordPress in my experience, so it won't take too long.

I always try to keep WordPress and all my online programs updated since the updates sometimes contain security updates to make it harder for hackers, and spammers to register on your site to hack or spam. Recovering from a hack, or spam attack can be very time consuming.
 
or the updates can lead to your site being wide open in a hacking as it might have an easy exploit.

but I upgraded, the ACP looks a bit sleek but thats about it.

and it might be because of all the tabs I had open, but does anyone experience any lag in the new wordpress as they type up an article?
 
Wow, I can't believe WordPress 3.2.1 already came out, so soon which might fix your slow editor performance.

Indeed, new software can have new hacking problems, but there are usually more hacking problems and spambot problems with older version of WordPress like WP 2.0.

No, I don't experience any lag when typing up new articles. I notice the new WordPress to be faster. I think it is your open tabs slowing down your article.
