I've always felt most quests are best done with six PCs or less. The RP is better, the strategy and planning is infinitely better, and (arguably) best of all, the rewards are almost always better.
Some quests are great for large groups, sure. Any attrition-style quest is good for large groups. But if I'm winding through a cave, I'd rather not have seven other people cramping me in.
