I guess it would depend on the PE of your mount to a certain degree. If it doesn't have good PE and requires checking and adjusting by the autoguiding software quite frequently, then a longer exposure time isn't much of a benefit as your mount might have moved to far before a correction is made.

If you've got good PE then you can take longer exposures and use fainter stars.
