Depends... There is also the factor of quality over quantity. And a couple who has been together a long time may raise suspicions as to why they haven't filed earlier. Especially in countries where long courtships are not the cultural norm.
The age of the couple also makes a difference. We first discussed marriage when we had been together about 5 months. But we are in our 40s and both have been married before. We knew what we were getting into. If two 18-year-olds talk marriage after 5 months there might be some concern.

Criteria for filing i129F is very simple. 1) Petitioner is a U.S. citizen 2) Both of you are free to marry 3) You have met each other at least once in the last two years.
Anything else is a subjective opinion.
