What I'm wondering is about how many searchers and patrollers do you like to put in a given province per thousand population? I'm never quite sure just how much the deaths from patrolling are offset by the growth scale.

Number of searchers don't have much to do with number of population in bloodhunted province. As long as population is larger than 5000 it is irrelivent. The number of slaves produced by your sercahers AND unrest generated by them will still be the same. I always try to choose the least income-wise province from 5000-6000 pop range, to give some breathing space for population loss due to bloodhunting and patrolling, while avoiding crippling more populated and rich provinces.

Not sure about patrollers though.
