Yes, it will do all tables that satisfy the criteria.

If, you have it set to 60 seconds, then yes. It hits one db each minute. Actually, to be more clear, it sleeps 1 minute between each check. So, if, on average, it takes 60 seconds to perform the necessary vacuum/analyzes, then it there will be, on average, 2 minutes between each db, or 400 minutes to get through all 200 dbs.
