How does mining software choose transactions?
That being said, AFAIK miner miners/pools run the standard algorithm included in Geth, which is:
Discard anything below a threshold
Gather all the executable transactions (i.e. one for each account) … Pick the more expensive one
Repeat from step 2. until no more transactions fit into the block
Few caveats:
The algorithm is actually a bit smarter and does a fancy sort so that steps 2-3-4 can be done …

How should we benchmark transaction per sec?
When you push in more transactions than the blocks fit in, the block sizes are gradually increased to cater for them, so in theory it's unlimited. … The record for the main net (i.e. real, paid transactions) was something along 8 TPS, but that didn't even dent the system. …

How many transactions can the network handle?
Based on the above rationale, there is no theoretical limit to the number of transactions that can be squished into a block, just needs a bit of time to adjust. … Practically you need to get those transactions to the miners, they have to process it, distribute the results etc, so based on how optimal the implementations are, there's an upper limit. …

The second is simpler, the gas fees are deducted from your account, not from the transferred value, so you need only to specify 21K gas (transaction cost) * 50 shannon (minimum gas price currently).
