For me about 20km/h between min and max, but only if I am more or less alone. As traffic gets tighter the difference drops to 15 or 10km/h, below that I'll probably start driving in gear, but coasting whenever possible (before intersections, for example). Usually a variation of 10km/h at speeds above 60km/h won't make much of a difference to anyone following me at a reasonable distance. If someone starts tailgating then I gradually slow down to reduce chance of injury/damage.
