Normally, I use a 65K FFT for spectrum averaging. But my software allows other sizes as well, plus different windows. (Soundforge 10). I also have iZotope RX and this includes a spectrum plot of time (X) vs. Frequency (Y) vs. intensity (Z, i.e. color). The size of the temporal resolution can be adjusted but there is the inescapable tradeoff of time resolution vs. frequency resolution.
With these spectrum plots it is very easy to see high frequency noise and to distinguish it from high frequency musical sounds. In addition, one can edit the spectral plots to easily remove unwanted noises, even to the point of removing notes out of a chord or removing guitar string squeaks.
