In general, 8.1 has BIG performance benefits over 8.0 (e.g. compare the 
speeds of opening windows in a list view in 8.1 vs 8.0).

Likewise, 8.6 tends to have better stability than 8.5, but with 
comparable resource requirements, so I almost always upgrade 8.5 systems 
to 8.6. Also, many third party vendors only support their software on 8.6 
or greater.
