Best Practice around number of Record Tags on News Posts

I was unable to find a recommendation of a suggested max number of Record Tags for a news post.

I have a primary concern of performance, as evaluating the visibility for the records must be done for each tag.  Depending on how many posts are loaded when hitting News, the system could experience heavy load.  I know it's an extreme example

I feel from a UX perspective 3 is about the most record tags you want, beyond that and the post gets cluttered.

Does anyone have any metrics or suggestions around the performance concern?  For UX, have you found 3 to be about right, more, less?

Also, if there is a clear recommendation in the documentation, can you please point me to it?

    Thanks ChristineH (christineh) and Jacob Grafenstein (jacobg) Your perspectives are very helpful, and I'm glad to see that are similar to our thoughts here. I was hoping for some metrics, just as numbers are easier to represent to business, but I agree with you, the best user experience and application design would mean very few record tags. I think our best approach is to identify which record is most relevant, and discuss enhancement possibilities that would allow drilling to the other records from the primary one on the news post.

    I'm still interested in anyone else's input, please feel free to keep this discussion going. Thanks Again!
