Subject: Are five piece table bases worth it?

Just got a new computer that is large enough to hold the five piece table bases.
Do they appreciably improve ELO if the program is already relatively strong? Or
are they only good for tricky endings that occur infrequently? Has anyone done a
same engine study with one using the four piece, and the other the five piece?
I'm currenty downloading them, just in case.
