I usually switch to testing about 1 year after the release of stable. We're about the 9 month mark and I'm getting anxious. Any major issues running testing? This is for my main desktop.

I've been running testing for quite some time. Runs well. Sometimes some smaller hiccups during the freezes. They don't promise you'll get security patches on time (with anything but stable). Otherwise nice rolling distro. I'm occasionally mixing in packages from unstable.
