Maximum number of web parts/web part zones per page? (Microsoft SharePoint 2007)

Question

I've already found the max number of web parts per page:

Customizable - in web.config file, <configuration><SharePoint><WebPartLimits MaxZoneParts="XX" />
50 (default) - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787.aspx
100 (recommended max) - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc287743.aspx

However, I've been unable to find:

the maximum number of web parts per web part zone
the maximum number of web part zones per page

Check out this article:

Wasn't easy to find, but it might help. Looks like the default limit it 50.

These are theoreticall limits.

Everytime you add an extra webpart to a page the load time increases. In my experiance the site will become too slow long before you hit these limits.

Yeah, but I still want to know what the limit is. Actually it'd be even more useful to know where the limit is configured (like I found for web parts per page), so then I can administrate those limits. – Kache May 09 '10 at 17:25
