I think that depends on what you mean by safe.

If you mean safe in terms of not getting hacked then the basic rule is
the fewer processes you have running, the better your chances are, but
other than that it's pretty hard to say quanititatively.

If you mean safe in terms of the apps from CF5 not interfering with CFMX
and vice versa then I don't think you can really say for sure. I suppose
it depends on the apps themselves. If you have apps that talk to a lot
of 3rd party systems and do a lot of filesystem type access you could
well run into problems, but exactly what those problems would be is
anyone's guess.

Ultimately I think it depends on how critical the application is, and
how expensive it will be if anything goes wrong.

Why do you ask?
