How many layers is too many?

I’m up to 7 layers in my current project and wondering if I could/should add another one. I’ve really never thought about how many layers is too many, and how it might effect performance. Before I get carried away I thought I better ask, in case I should be coming up with plan B instead of another layer.

If it matters, most to the layers have just a few items, mainly ui or menu stuff, hidden most of the time.

I have 18 layers on some scenes even more
The lag comes from the objects I don’t think it matters how many layers you have

Hi,
i’ve 5 layers.
which 1 is for lights,
1 for map,
2-3 for parallax and base.
If you don’t use effects for layers i guess there is no problem to add more.
Effects and bg objects makes layers heavier.

I’havent noticed performance issues on menus layers
