For a personal project I was trying to transcribe a part of the flute solo in this piece. However, I am unsure at what speed I should transcribe the piece. I could either transcribe the piece at 250 bpm or 125 bpm. If the piece is transcribed with 250 bpm the transcription may be significantly less complicated, but 125 bpm may fit the piece better. I have transcribed the first few seconds of the piece at 250 bpm and 125 bpm respectively in the image below.
What BPM is would be considered more fitting? Or is this a subjective matter?
EDIT: I know this transcription is in the wrong key, it was just a quick mock-up to go with the question, to depict the rhythm. The actual transcription has been made in the right key. (:

This question is often subjective, but there are some objective rationalizations that make things easier.
I would strongly recommend transcribing this in a way that doesn't use so many small note values. Not only does this match the feel of the music better, it will also be easier for a performer to read; those 64th notes in the 125bpm transcription are pretty gnarly.
With that said, remember that you can transcribe something into a form of cut time. In this case, I'd use the 250bpm transcription but with a 2/2 time signature, signifying that the half note receives the beat instead of the quarter note (and thus it's really 125bpm).
Transcribing it in cut time is really the best of both worlds: you get the notational simplicity of the 250bpm transcription with the half-time feel of the 125bpm transcription.

Spot on. When in doubt, listen to the song and tap your foot to the music. I found myself grooving along at 125 bpm to variations of a standard 4/4 beat. If the flute happens to be played in 64th, tough luck. If a reader can't handle it, they should pick a piece with slower flute parts.

I would ask: Less complicated to whom? As it is notated by a computer program I assume you mean: to the interprete.
Even I risk to be critsized again that I don‘t answer the OP‘s question ... my advice will be:
All this discussion here about bpm is absolutely senseless as long your transcription is in the wrong key! You can forget your doubts what division to choose. This one here will be ok for every musician.
But this piece is in Eb major and your notation is almost unreadable as with all this accidentals it is pretty nonsense.
While in the correct key it will be much less complicated to reading.
Concerning your question about the bpm I‘m thinking of Bach‘s famos Air of the Suite in D. There are lots of 32nd notes but it doesn’t seem to be any problem for reading ...

Don't worry, the transcription I added was just a small mockup to show the rythm, the actual transcription was indeed done in Eb major.

I would ask: Less complicated to whom? As it is notated by a computer program I assume you mean: to the interprete.
Even I risk to be critsized again that I don‘t answer the OP‘s question ... my advice will be:
All this discussion here about bpm is absolutely senseless as long your transcription is in the wrong key! You can forget your doubts what division to choose. This one here will be ok for every musician.
But this piece is in Eb major and your notation is almost unreadable as with all this accidentals it is pretty nonsense.
While in the correct key it will be much less complicated to reading.
Concerning your question about the bpm I‘m thinking of Bach‘s famos Air of the Suite in D. There are lots of 32nd notes but it doesn’t seem to be any problem for reading ...

Don't worry, the transcription I added was just a small mockup to show the rythm, the actual transcription was indeed done in Eb major.

I could either transcribe the piece at 250 bpm or 125 bpm. If the piece is transcribed with 250 bpm the transcription may be significantly less complicated, but 125 bpm may fit the piece better.

This rhythm notation here is absolutely ok. But the notated key is wrong and not useful. Look up my answer.
