Rob,
Effectively these both do the same thing: rapid stp and uplinkfast.
However, I don't think the IOS for the 3550 support rapid stp yet.
My 2cents.

If you have a question that states " configure the switch to unblock
immediately the redundant path in the event of a failure" The actual
answer was use the uplink fast option however In my opinion I felt that
rapid-pvst was not only quicker but also more efficient as it doesnt
cause all other intefaces to flood multicast packets everywhere for each
address learnt. It also appears to achieve the same desired result so
you could argue both are a valid solution
Appreciate anyones thoughts opinions?
