I have DB clusters with masters with a terrabyte of ram. Going beyond that is a PITA with warming up cache, backups, and so on. There is a reason there's a huge industry for shared databases.

Also, query for query, Mongo isn't going to be that much slower than PG, and faster for some usage patterns...
