I've never had a problem. In fact, in my last game as Gandhi, I took the AI capital and took capitulated peace with him (Saladin). It was the Hindu holy city and had a ton of wonders. Between the Shrine income and the wonders I was happy, then I added in about 10 fully matured towns. It was more than worth it to station the troops necessary and take a fairly strong capitulate. I was able to swiftly move on to intercontinental invasions. The quicker I can take a capitulate, the better. The faster I can move onto another target.
