What is the amount of free space that i have to keep on my 16gb nexus 4 so that the phone runs smooth.. or being a high end device, is this irrelevant?

Irrelevant. As you near the capacity limit, you'll get a warning message. As long as you stay below the threshold of getting the warning message, you'll be fine.
I had a couple of apps complain that I didn't have enough storage when trying to update. I have about 500MB of free storage.

The system handles memory pretty well. When you start to run short on memory a warning will pop-up telling you to clear up storage, which you'll need to either delete a few apps, clear app caches or transfer files form the internal sd card (whichever warning appears). If your device starts to run sluggish its because you have memory intensive apps or widgets running.
So I don't need to worry about memory until i get a warning from the OS right.

That might be those apps with size greater than 500mega.right?

I would do regular cleaning anyway.

Plague inc did that to me and it's only 70MB. Another app did it too but can't remember which one. My only app taking more than 150MB is Google music because of all the offline songs.
Updates always worked on second try.

How you fill up a 16GB phone with purely apps is beyond me. I normally use just the google apps and social media and currently have 7 GB available...
Sounds like you may want to try out cloud storage options for photos, music, and files. Google Drive works great for storing any type of file on the cloud. They offer 15GB of free storage. For photos, Google+ has an auto backup feature that you turn on from within the app. For music, Play Music works great for storing your entire library on their servers. You stream your songs with an internet connection as opposed to storing any songs locally.
Hope that helps.
