I must be lucky cuz I've been using the same old 3/32" bit for many boards (mostly G10) and never had a problem drilling properly sized clean holes with my $20 POS Chinese benchtop drill. I often use the same bit for drilling pilot holes in aluminum as well. Go figure.
I'm assuming circuit boards refers to PCB's here so my PCB pads are usually 75mil or smaller, the drill size appropriate for most component i use on pcb's is a #70 or 71 (26 mil carbide bit) not quite as robust as 3/32", the little ones are extremely fragile.
