There are no resources to test, that cannot change, so put that out of the equation.

But keep in mind I am talking about FULL patchset, that has been out a LONG time, and installed by many many people. There is always the slim chance that it might cause a problem, but the good it does outweighs that. I would venture a guess that if you took 1000 databases and compared how many were helped and how many hurt by an untested patch, the vast majority would be helped.
