Juggling endurance and strength question

Given that juggling, especially endurance juggling, is small weights and high repetitions and you need to build up strength and stamina to juggle for a length of time, I was wondering, for example, if you wanted to be able to juggle 5 x 65g balls for 1 minute, how many minutes can/should you be able to juggle 4 for ? how long for 3 ?

I'm wondering what sort of curve would be produced for 3, 4, 5, 6, ...

side thought, would the records page here be a good indicator given it's personal bests rather than averages

I don't juggle as much as I used to and have definitely lost some ability, endurance, tricks, patterns etc, but I still try to throw and catch a few things once a week or so and I still lurk here regularly and still have an interest in juggling and other circus skills. I once juggled 5 for just over 100 catches, nowadays I can only flash or qualify a small fraction of attempts, yet 3 ball cascade and some 3 ball tricks I can still do on muscle memory alone.
