Hi,
My host wants to upgrade from mySQL 5.5 to MariaDB in order to increase speed.
Question: Does MFH work a 100% with Maria DB?
Thanks

I haven't had any problems with MariaDB, so you should be fine.

BTW: Is it really faster and would you choose MySQL 5.6 or MariaDB?
I am just not sure what to do

Honestly, I don't know of any advantages/disadvantages of using MariaDB over MySQL. It was just the database vendor of choice from my web hosting company, and it's working fine for me.
EDIT: Some reading on MySQL vs MariaDB:

After using Maria DB now for about 2 weeks I had no issues.
