The rule with our board - I'm an elementary school teacher, not sure if this applies to middle and highschool - is 10 minutes per grade, so grade 1 should have 10 minutes, grade 5 should have 50 minutes, etc. This really depends, of course, on students working at the average rate, which varies depending on ability level and how thorough a job they want to do. Students are also expected to read independently for at least 20 minutes each night.
As for whether this is too much or too little, every year at parent teacher interviews, you can count on some parents being upset about too much homework, while others are upset that there isn't enough homework...
