Also there were known, unfixable architecture bugs in 8.1 windows
pgsql and it was abandoned because of that.

Generally, stability is pretty good as long as you don't get the
dreaded "could not reattach to shared memory" issue. Not sure if that
ever got truly fixed or not. Performance on the other hand, is where
running on unix or linux is a big help. For 20 windows should be
fine. For 200 I'd rather run it on linux.
