Would PSQL10 / BA1.3 combo be more/less stable than PSQL 8.6/BA 1.0 ?

[Database Administrator]

Hello,

I have a customer with 40-user install of PSQL 8.6 with Backup Agent
1.0 (win2003) that needs 10-user count increase.

Is PSQL 10 / newest BA more or less stable than the former?
Would upgrade be justified?

There is one problem to solve:
About 3 times a year backup procedure would crash Pervasive _hard_ ,
for unknown reason.
This involved corrupting files - status 2. Not good at all.

Is it better to stick with V8 and hunt for user count increase
licenses or go straight to v10 (expensive route) and be sure that it
is more stable?

Any suggestions and opinions are welcome
Thanks in advance
