CentOS aim to get their point releases out 2-4 weeks after the upstream release. 5.3 took 10 weeks.

do you think that a yum update could be enough and painless to migrate from centos5.3 to 5.4?

There shouldn't be. But you're recommended to take a backup first, just in case!

Wrote on centos forum on 17 of this month:
Here is an update about the status of CentOS 5.4. The QA team is going to see the first 5.4 tree for both i386 and x86_64 very soon (maybe today).

I want it now :P
