An extract from Monstrous Manual(tm):
"Perhaps it is the common use of magic in drow society that has given the dark elves their incredible resistance. Drow have a base resistance to magic of 50%, which increases by 2% for each level of experience. (Multi-classed drow gain the bonus from only the class in which they have the highest level.) All dark elves save vs. all forms of magical attack (including devices) with a+2 bonus. Thus, a 5th-level drow has a 60% base magic resistance and a +2 bonus to her saving throws vs. spells that get past her magic resistance."
Natural Magic Resistance cap is at 80%. That implies that a dark elf will not gain anymore after level 15.
I think TDD incorporates this in the same way, except of the multiclassed Drow, who get 2% each level, and I don't think there is a cap.
