Mine is 11’ which gives me room for transom Windows around the perimeter.
During the day, I can work with natural light and the lights are high enough to be out of the way of sheet goods and most boards I work with.

I am ashamed to say I had to look "transom" up.

Why?
None of us knows everything.
You’re going to learn a lot building your shop and get great satisfaction from the work and your WW’ing to come.

If you go with the transom windows, an idea that I really like, orient the building such that you maximize the sunlight.
