By "10 speeds" do you mean 2x5 gearing, a.k.a. 10-speed bicycle, or that newfangled system where they name them based on the number of sprockets on the rear? Either way, I would think the danger of breaking the RD when you shift to larger sprockets or chainring would be the same as on any other gear combination.
