Generally, I'd recommend tuning what you have, rather than starting over
with another unknown quantity. Make sure you're current on 4.x and then
make sure you have a configuration that's using your system respurces
well.

Well, the 3.6.x series is primarily bugfixes, performance and stability
improvements. So, you're running code that's about a year behind on
bugfixes, performance and stability improvements.
