I stayed with 9.3 when 10.0 came out as my configuration is complex and usually takes me a couple of weeks to get everything back working.
When 10.1 came out I decided to go with that. In my view, apparently not others, it is far superior to 9,3 and I have been happy every since. So much so that I now have installed 10.1 on about 10 machines. Sure the rpm update system has been problematic but in every case I have won the battle with little effort and have been happy with the results.
But if I read you correctly, you have no data on 10.0 vs. 10.1, only 9.3 vs. 10.1. So your results are consistent both with 9.3 < 10.1 < 10.0 and with 9.3 < 10.0 < 10.1.

The main reason to update, lays in the kernel and in their new drivers and, eventually, some new future in some application. If you have a recent machine it's preferable to install the last release, once you have more guaranties that the several devices will work. In my case I've two machines with SuSE 9.2 and a laptop with 10.1. But I'll keep the 9.2 in the tow machines. In one I'll just install the last OpenOffice. At the other, that works as a server, I can't upgrade to 10.1 cause the actual RALink wireless driver don't work with the kernel of 10.1. LC
