Leveling Spec help

Okay, I have decided to level my Death Knight and wondering what build would have the least amount of downtime and somewhat/best survivability while leveling *and of course good DPS*.
My guess is Blood, but I'm wondering if I pull 2-3 mobs, will I be able to survive? I played as Unholy before, and had good survivability.
How is Blood compared to Unholy dps/survivalbilty/downtime?
Sorry if this seems out of order or just noobish.
P.S I read the stickies so I know the builds but still unsure as I'm seeing people go into Frost as DPS, but probably for end-game content?

DPS-wise all 3 trees are close enough that you'll be fine no matter what. I leveled as Unholy and had no downtime at all while retaining high surviveability (solo'd the vast majority of my group quests). Blood will be able to solo even tougher mobs with what I expect to be even less downtime, if that was even possible.

How is Blood compared to Unholy dps/survivalbilty/downtime?
I leveled with a blood spec all the way, zero downtime, survivability was never an issue for the normal quests. And most groups quests I did popping into frost presence, worked out well. Some were train wrecks tho and I died horribly. Picking my fights has never been my strong side.
Anyway, I think that if you enjoy leveling as Unholy then go for that. If you want to try out the Blood or Frost, go for it. People have made it to 80 in almost every variation I'm sure. As long as you are having a fun time, that's the right spec :p
The Spec
I leveled in. Headed down Unholy for perma ghoul after blood (it's been a while). As you can see it wasn't a optimal spec, but it worked out fine and I had loads of fun playing, even got to tank some and the talents weren't such a waste.
