Is it more efficient in terms of disk space to have many collections
within 1 database than to have multiple databases with fewer
collections, but with the risk that allocated data files will be
unncessarily large (e.g. only a small portion of the final 2.0GB file
used)?
Are there any likely performance trade-offs for doing this?

More collections in fewer databases is better for disk space usage.
I don't think there is any performance downside to that.
