A changeset is limited to 50,000 elements so there's your upper limit for diff uploads as well. Two different kinds of overhead play into the diff upload equation. The smaller your individual HTTP requests, the more processing time and network latency is wasted in creating the HTTP connection, assigning a daemon, etc etc; and the larger your uploaded changesets, the more expensive it becomes for the database to isolate your transaction. Where exactly the "sweet spot" lies in that equation is hard for me to tell, and is also likely to be very different on the production machines compared to the dev server. My gut feeling would be to try something like this: open a changeset, then do 40 individual diff uploads of about 1,000 elements each, then close the changeset, and repeat.
