Only if you want the feature updates from the Apple side of things (Netflix improvements, MLB, AirPlay mirroring, etc).

You can make easy links to the XBMC wiki using double brackets around words: [[debug log]] = debug log, [[Add-on:YouTube]] = Add-on:YouTube, [[Adding videos to the library]] = Adding videos to the library, [[userdata]] = userdata, etc

I'm mainly curious if there are any performance gains or losses with the new Firmware?

For performance (note this is just from what other people have said, and is not any kind of scientific measurement): 4.3 > 5.0.1 (aka 5.1.1, newest version) > 5.0 (aka 5.1) = 4.4.4
