I haven't noticed it ignoring the limit whatsoever...

How it functions in my experience is if your fortress is acknowledged as under the limit, a migrant wave will be generated and head to you after an amount of time. The size of the wave doesn't seem to correlate with the amount of dwarves below cap you are, you could be one under and get a wave of 20.

100, usually. That ends me up with less than 150 dwarves, what with the babies and the size of the last year's migration waves after reaching 100 population. Quite manageable.

Less, if I'm going to be doing anything that eats FPS.

This isn't what I mean. The population cap ignores the fact that you are already over the stated limit, and this excludes children.

It used to work exactly as you say, but my current fort of 55 (11 over my cap) still receives regular migrant waves, which I have been killing off.

You have to restart the game for any changes in the init files to take effect.

Yes, that's correct. The limit was set before I embarked.
