The NTDS file will vary in size depending on what specific rights you set in the directory and how you set them.

The maximum recommended size of the NTDS.DIT file is 24 gigabytes, since you can only recover 1 Gigabyte an hour during an AD restore (with native MS techniques.)

The maximum recommended number of AD objects in a forest is about 5 million.
