I don't have a good answer for you.... but.... I really wish more devices would permit filtering such that the only broadcasts/multicasts permitted on customer facing segments were ARP and possibly DCHP if that's applicable to you.
If you can exempt arp and dhcp from this, then the correct value is likely as low as you can set it. If you can't exempt arp and dhcp, you need to think about the ramifications where a low level broadcast storm saturates the setting you have set and prevents arp and dhcp from working....
