The Mac I had in the studio from 2010 to 2015 was a 2005 MacPro and that could handle 96 tracks all with EQ and comp plugs. Plus around 8 aux busses with effects.
My 2007 iMac is fine with 48 tracks all with EQ and comp plugs plus a few effects busses
Complex reverb algorithms are probably the most taxing in terms of CPU, I remember Altiverb used to make the old CPU groan a bit
The processing we have available now is insane compared to the old days.
My current Mac Pro never goes over 20% CPU with 80+ tracks and plugins on every channel.
I don't bother benchmarking anymore- the only thing that stretches modern DAW's are high CPU virtual instruments which I don't use as I have hardware synths I prefer.

the main thing that seems to make it fall over is midi tracks… if you have a software instrument or midi track logic is always listening, always recording infact even if your just noodeling…
I tend to get the midi stuff done and bounced ASAP…
From what I've seen, rather than "how many plugins can an M1 run" a better "how many plugins will run on an M1"
