I'm running Live 7 here on Leopard and it is as stable at it has ever
been. I have been using Live back since version 3.

You should really get version 7 for the macbook because 5.2 doesn't
support multi core processors, and that was a huge power lift when it
was introduced!

As for your last question I'm afraid I can't tell, since I have never
found a musical situation  that calls for such a huge amount of track
and processes that would give me a chance to measure the CPU headroom.
