Back when I bought a big compressor I was all set to buy a 7.5 HP to have plenty of air for a couple of air tools at the same time and also to do some sandblasting. The Salesman actually talked me out of a 7.5 HP. He asked me how many times I would actually need that much air, said that 7.5 HP would use more electric and use it ALL the time and the starting amps is way up there.
