When it was a refugee camp during the Haitian refugee crisis starting in 1991, it held 12,500 people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haitian_refugee_crisis
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1994_Cuban_rafter_crisis says during 1994 Cuban rafter crisis 'Around 20,000 rafters would be detained at the base.' but it does not say how many were held at the same time.
