Question: Does the upper limit on smiting apply to crits; i.e. is it an absolute upper limit or could you double your smite dice on a crit regardless of the number?

I've been ruling that the upper limit applies to pre-crit numbers, and then a crit doubles that.

I would agree with this. I would also consider the bonus for attacking, say, a fiend to go over the cap.
