For a typical flat bet basic strategy player, what is the optimal number of boxes to play per round to achieve the highest amount of turn over with the lowest variance?
If you play 7 boxes, you increase turn over per round, increases variances per round and reduces rounds played per hour.
If you play 1 box, you reduce turn over per round, reduces variances per round and increases rounds played per hour.
Note: more rounds per hour means more turn over and more variance.

Since hands are positive correlated (coefficient is about +0.3), for lowest variance at fixed turnover per hand play each hand individually.
If time is an additional constraint, then it will obviously depend on the speed of your actions, and the actions of the dealer.
If you are a lot faster than the dealer, for fixed turnover per round play all boxes with smaller betsize. If the dealer is a lot faster than you, again play each hand individually. Anything inbetween - obviously - you would need exact timings to answer your question.
