I don't think you lose anything, assuming your application works fine.  You
gain:

* A 64-bit Sun JVM for x86-64.
* SNMP monitoring of the JVM.
* The ability to attach a profiling to a running JVM and see what all the
threads are doing--useful for catching production problems as they occur.

I didn't notice any negative side affects migrating our application over
from the Sun JRE 1.4.2 => 1.5.0, it "just worked."
