It is platform dependant and also depends on what you
consider acceptable. As you add more acls you reach a point
where the throughput drops drastically. Also some platforms
support Turbo ACL which compiles the ACL and allows you more
entries per ACL.

Unless you are exceeding 1000 limes you should be ok on the
mid level routers. More along the lines of
400 or so for lower end routers as a rough estimate.
