Summary

The Request Size Limits section of the Write Commands Specification states the following:

maxWriteBatchSize : currently 1000, this is the maximum number of inserts, updates, or deletes that can be included in a write batch. If more than this number of writes are included, the server cannot guarantee space in the response document to reply to the batch.

The stated value of 1,000 for maxWriteBatchSize is stale, since it was changed to 100,000 as part of SERVER-13061. We should update the spec to state 100,000 as the current value. Alternatively we could change the spec to not refer to the current value so that it does not become stale in the future.
