        Which Blog Type you are working ?
        If it's magazine then 7 recent post and feature slider with 4-5 post.

        or else if you a static page and you can add upto 7-10. but if you have a large thumbnail like 600px width and 300px height then use 5 for better page load and even you used CDN !

        I used 7 recent post in our homepage. and tag archive as 10 and category wise 10. if you are WordPress using blogger this will help.

        My blog loads in 2.5s to 6s depend on the theme also !

          Thanks for the response Sri Ganesh,

          This is our logblog, http://robinwadefurniture.com/logblog

          Actually, this question arose because;

          We are starting to make our site SEO-friendly. From Moz's crawl error report, we had 1000+ Missing Meta Description Error. We are using Squarespace, the setting for MD is per page. Our current number of blog posts per page is 20. We are confused. 
          These are our option: (Help us figure out please)

          a. Set ONE (1) Meta Description for all of the blog posts.

          b. Leave our logblog as it is, 20 posts per page, so 1 MD per 20 posts(per page)

          c. or set the number of blog posts per page lesser. (7-10?) and use different MD per page.

          Also, we are starting to fix our site's interface, if you have more suggestions, it will be highly appreciated. Thanks!
