I'm not in it near full time, so I can't answer myself. Speaking from what I've heard...
-Rizen has said that he usually runs 4-6 tables when he's playing tournaments and that he actually plays fewer tables when playing cash than when playing tournaments.
-scrugby has said that one of the things he looks for as an avenue to exploit is players playing too many tables, because their play becomes predictable since they can't focus enough to get the same level of reads.
-Nick Brancato recommended to me starting with 2 tables and getting 20k-50k* hands at a given level with a set number of tables to find your expected winrate before adding more tables. Rinse and repeat as you add tables to see about where your breaking point is. I suppose this could be applied the other way too - start with as many as you can and remove one until you hit the point that the increased winrate isn't as much as the decreased volume.

*He actually followed this with "I'd rather tell you to play 100k hands, but I know that's going to sound ridiculous and take forever at 2 tables."
