Total Frames before it becomes an overkill

Afternoon all,

Just checked out the cloud cover for tonight and saw the magical '0%' so I'm going to attempt another Saturn shot at about 6:30 - 7pm tonight.

I took these a couple of night ago http://imgur.com/a/rIAQo
The Saturn picture is 3000 frames in total and using the best 85% of the frames.
I have worked out I should be able to get about 10k - 15k frames of Saturn before I start to see rotation from the earth in the images.

What I am wondering, is it worth taking so many frames or does it get to a point where adding more data isn't going to make it any more sharp or clear?

Sorry about the awfully written post, got a bit confused myself while typing it haha.
