Number of points

I was wondering if anyone has any sort of rule-of-thumb about how many points to take on diameters. I know that varies for size and/or maybe what kind of tolerance on the feature. I mean, I know how many hits I usually take on certain features and what works for me, but is there any sort of stuff out there that talks about recommended numbers of hits for features? Just wanted peoples thoughts on this...
