There is not rule. When I wrote the code, I've done some testing to see the behavior with TWSocket. I selected 100 messages as a result of this informal testing. Actually the best number is application dependent. The more message you have, the more work is to be done by a single thread. But there could be a lot of not frequently used messages and/or a small number of messages used at a high rate. I cannot advice for a value.
