Chain Link Fence with Slats - Percent Opening

thread507-293723: 12-foot Tall Chain Link Fence with Privacy Slats
Please reference the above thread; for a typical chainlink fence (for, say, playground or other similar conditions), which has vinyl slats in them, what percent opening would be recommended for wind loading? I've used 60% in the past, but I'm hoping that's too conservative. Gulp.

Oops -- I meant 40% open, ...which now sounds not conservative at all. Hah. Anyway, many thanks for your inputs. First Eng-tips thread, too. Will definitely post again. Cheers.
