I was watching one of those cooking shows over the weekend, and they were doing a thing on fried foods, and spent a lot of time obsessing about how the temperature of the oil has to be perfect. They had a thermometer and they calculated the volume of oil needed so there wouldn't be too large a drop in temp when the food was added.

Apparently, it's pretty complicated.
