Now I have tried it with a couple of high-ISO images, and I would caution 
upgraders against just letting Lightroom update the entire filmstrip 
automatically. In the two cases I looked at, high-ISO images became sharper 
but also grainier after the upgrade, not necessarily the effect I wanted. 
Fortunately, the update can be undone in the Develop module, since it is 
just another action in History.

For me the bottom line is that updating of previously processed images that 
are low ISO is by and large a waste of time, and updating of high ISO images 
should be done on an image-to-image basis, not in bulk.

Thanks to everyone for your help.
