Recently there have been a few papers in this direction. The first one is [AN ON-AVERAGE MAEDA-TYPE CONJECTURE IN THE LEVEL ASPECT by KIMBALL MARTIN][1]. The main conjecture 1.1 of that article translated to this setting implies: **Conjecture:** On average $J_0(p)$ has 2 simple factors. For $p >>0$ the decomposition of $J_0(p)$ always has at least two simple factors since $J_0(p)^+$ and $J_0(p)^-$ are factors of it. So on average Kimball Martin one expects these to be the only two components. In particular for a fixed integer d the conjecture implies that on average $f(p,d) \to 0$ as $p \to \infty$. Additionally Alex Cowan [has done extensive computations][2] on the decomposition of $J_0(p)$ into smaller factors for all primes $p < 1000000$. And his data only seem to support this conjecture. Indeed his data show the following: Total number of simple dimension d factors for p < X X d=1 2 3 4 5 6 Pi(x) 100000 1686 737 126 35 22 11 9592 200000 2751 1060 147 36 22 12 17984 300000 3717 1290 164 37 22 12 25997 400000 4592 1493 177 37 22 12 33860 500000 5427 1679 183 37 22 12 41538 600000 6226 1856 190 37 22 12 49098 700000 7020 1991 200 37 22 12 56543 800000 7728 2132 205 38 22 12 63951 900000 8456 2271 211 38 22 12 71274 1000000 9172 2412 218 38 22 12 78498 Where `Pi(x)` is the prime counting function. In particular these data seem to be consistent with $f(p,d) \to 0$ on average. [1]: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1912.06911.pdf [2]: https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.10745
