If you are using the WiredTiger storage engine then there is no restriction on capping of collections, databases on a single instance.

Only constraint is that the maximum BSON document size is 16MB or 16777216 bytes.

From above one you can calculate the size of collections, db depending one how many collections you have in a database in a instance.

For more information on size and limit depending on the storage engine and version of mongo you are using click here
