Considering a RespecFollow

I've been playing an Affliction Warlock since level 10, and while the playstyle is fun I think it might be time to try something different.

I'm not sure how up I would be on being a nuker - not until 70 anyway - but I was considering respeccing to Demonology. My question to your Demon Locks is how viable is a Demon spec in your mid to late 40's?

As Affliction I can take on 2 - 5 mobs at a time with Dots, iHot, et al. Would I be able to Drain Hunt a similar number as a Demon lock? Or should I stick with Affliction or Destruction for the moment?

After further research let me add a bit more that might help with opinions:

Right now I do not do a significant amount of dueling. I mostly am trying to reach the big 70.

I've tried Affliction, and while I do enjoy it the survivability is not quite as high as I would like. So, to try and put some things out there - I am considering switching to Demonology. It seems to have a higher survivability rate, to be honest. I'd ideally still like to take on multiple mobs, but if I can't - then I can't, I guess. So, here goes nothing:

My current 36/0/0 build

My problem with this is I don't think that iDS and iCoA are really worth the points I put into them. If iDS doesn't seem to proc as much as I'd think it would and iCoA is not all that much extra damage. So if I stayed Affliction I was looking at this:

36/0/0

It basically redistributes the points somewhat.

The other build I was thinking of is more Demonology - its straight Demo actually.

0/36/0

I think it'd have higher survivability even against multiple mobs, allowing me to drain hunt with the Succy and party up with the Imp?

The last build is basically like that one but it adds the Imp Corr for its insta-cast:

5/31/0

I am really leaning towards that last build, but I wanted the take of some Demo locks out there.
