IRCnet also has a very high ratio in .eu. I believe they have one server in North America.
Yes, it's logical how the population grows and dies on Quakenet, but using the peak usercount, as opposed to an average one to judge the size of a network, is not. EFnet averages 12k more users, and at times has 30k more. Quakenet, at times, has 20k more than EFnet. Take a look at netsplit.de's daily readings for the two networks, and you'll see what I mean.
