Will the instance cap per hour be lifted during this period of time?

No? They were never lifted, and never will be.
They were lifted for TBC launch

New Instance Limit (source)
As part of our ongoing efforts to eliminate exploitative and automated gameplay, with scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, we’re implementing the following change to our settings on all WoW Classic realms:
- You may now enter a maximum of 30 unique instances (dungeon and raid) per day, per realm.
This restriction complements the current limit of 5 instances per hour. Now, when a player enters a dungeon or a raid, the game checks to see if they have entered 5 instances in the last hour or 30 instances in the last 24 hours, and if they have, they cannot enter the instance until enough time has elapsed. This check is across all of your characters on your realm.
These limits only apply to dungeon and raid instances, and do not apply to PvP battlegrounds.
Not accurate the 30 per day limit was removed like 5 days later.
And instance limits dont apply to raids.
I am aware. they removed the daily, but kept 5/hour. that was never removed.

Do you really think you’ll be finishing dungeons in <12 minutes on average? Even if it takes, say 10 minutes to do a dungeon, you can’t spend 2 minutes doing a quest? Leveling your professions? Getting up to stretch? Doing Utgarde Keep on repeat for hours sounds really boring.
We had prison farm in BRD down to 7 mins on skyfury and lets just say its annoying to have to loop around and kill a bunch of random stuff while waiting for the timer to tick over.
Yes. You can clear Stockades in under 5 minutes at level 80. You’ve got the right understanding on current content. but you miss the mark entirely on old content for materials
Even with current at level content there are plenty of sub 8 min farms that give huge exp.
are we talking about multiple people in the group, or 1?
Both, there a 5 man routes that pull and kill 15-20 packs and reset because its faster exp than doing the whole dungeon there are also solo farms that focus on a few easy mobs in an instance (taking the big exp boost from the instance) and reset quickly.
thats not doing an instance in under 8 minutes. We’re having a difference of words. Thats farming a part of an instance. Sub-10 minute runs include things like SM wings, VC, stocks, ZF, and multiple others. damn near full clear. Not for experience, for other things.
Yeah. Wrath dungeons are easy. A full group of players in blues can hit the hour reset timer on Utgarde Keep. Questing will be a crapshoot.
