Unlike a hardware based platform, like the 6500, which has a fixed, finite amount of space for NAT, this isn't really the case for ISRs. Everything is done in memory. If you have 1gb of free memory you will have more room for translations than if you have 512mb of free memory.
Every feature you turn on takes memory. Every route in the routing table takes memory. This means that the number of available NAT translations on your ISR is directly related to your free memory. Your best bet is to monitor your total free memory to get an idea when you are getting to dangerous levels.
