It depends on the channel. For some channels 60-65 percent is enough. For exchange / sink channels you need to rebalance aggressively. For those channels the limit is set to 80-90 percent.

Thanks, what else does balance "aggressively" mean? Are you talking about small spread between gained fees for routing and paid fees for rebalancing? If so, what are your values?
And btw, May I ask what resources you used to learn how to use lndg?
Yeah lets say you earn 1000ppm for routing 1mio from kraken to xyz. To rebalance Kraken its quite expensive so 80-90 percent costs is necessary for rebalancing. Some days are cheaper some are more expensive.
So lets say it cost you 800 sats to rebalance your profit is 200.
More channels you have more cheaper is rebalancing because your node finds way more routes through the network.
There are some good videos about the lndg basics from jonathan levi on youtube. But a lot was try and error. Once its setup its pretty cool and not that time expensive to run bigger nodes.
Plus there is a lndg telegram channel

But yeah let me know what you need to know and i will help you here as good as i can. So maybe other node runners could profit from that too.
Its hard to find a lot of infos for lndg on the www
once you open a channel always check whats their average fees on amboss
then set the fees high until you see some flow on the channel otherwise you could easily loose a lot of sats! i learnt it the hard way on some exchange channels. they drain your channel imidiately once your fees are too low.
There are many good routing nodes out where which have low in and outbound fees / balanced fees. I heavily suggest open channels to them before open channels to those liquidity sinks like lnbig, deezy and co.
