I prefer 1.5em. While % works well for reasonable text sizes, it tends to break down at the extremes. At small text sizes, 3% takes looks a bit much, while for really large text sizes, it can be hard to visually make out any indent at all.

But I want it to vary by size of my screen.
My theory, is the wider the screen (line), the more pronounced the indent needs to be. On a small screen (5", 600x800), 2 chars seems to be enough. on a widescreen, I want about 4 chars worth of indent.
Ideally, I would like to have both, % and em at the same time.
