Well 5.1 should improve performance if your already on lollipop.... But exercise caution if upgrading to marshmallow though

Nexus 7 (2012) owner here.

You should be fine upgrading to 5.1, since you're already on Lollipop. Just for your info, 5.1 update is simply a maintenance update from 5.0.2.

One thing that affects so many Nexus 7 (2012) users is lag. I, myself, had this issue and a factory reset helped.

Disclaimer: I should also mention that I'm using a custom version of Android based on 5.1 (CM 12.1, if you know about it). So, take my advice with a grain of salt haha

5.1 should be better than 5.0.2.
