I think you have Q1 backwards; it should be, "what is the highest limit you can beat while playing 8+ tables?". The .5/1 can be crushed while playing many tables. At .5/1 FR, you're looking at about 0.18VPP/hand, but you should be able to 24 table it with a little practice. 2/4 is more like .45 VPP/hand, but can
you beat it 8 or 10 tabling? There is no such limit online that the rake is too high because the limit is too small. VPP/hour efficiency, is a different question. Remember, if you're going to play a lot of hands with a WR < 0.5 BB/100, your bankroll requirements are very large. Even at 1BB/100 your 2% RoR is north of 800 BB. The answer to "what is the best limit" comes down to your effective WR at various lelvels and how low a WR you'll accept (and the corresponding large swings).
Q2 for me is a wash. You get more VPP/hand at 6m (larger pots) and more hands/hour. I can play significantly more FR tables. Personally, my 6m game is a little better than my FR game right now; I'd lean towards fewer tables at 6m but YMMV. 6m, you're looking at about .75 VPP/hand at 3/6 and about 1.1 VPP/hand at 5/T. If you can beat 5/T 6m, even at only 80 hands an hour you're talking 350+VPP/hour, which is pretty good.
