Is it worth upgrading, or should we wait a few months?

I'm mostly worried about the CS5 programs, but I've also heard that Lion is somewhat slower than Snow Leopard...

I have a powerful Mac Pro and a Mac Mini and on both systems it has been equal or a little faster than SL.

The only time Lion feels slower for me is when booting up. Everything else is faster than Snow Leopard. It feels polished and well put-together, even if it doesn't offer anything revolutionary. As long as the applications you need are compatible I see no reason to wait.
