How many questions?

Not many trivia channels advertise their number of questions and this indicates perhaps that they are using 'standardized questions' that every other room has. So, when trivia channels make a point of advertising the number of questions they have there is a good possibility that they are unique questions - however small or large the questionfile is.

Features far more important than 'number of questions', though, include 'verified questions' - e.g. #trivia-usa at Undernet - because although this room has just over 17,000 questions you can rest assured that they have been checked and edited for errors; and 'new questions added weekly' - e.g. iTNA-Trivia Freedom-IRC - which keeps the questionfile fresh and regular players on their toes!

Another important feature is 'player submissions'. If a site welcomes player submissions, and is prompt in adding them to the questionfile, then the trivia room is likely to be fresh, inclusive and dynamic. e.g. #TLK-Trivia at GameSurge devotes its entire blurb to new question submissions ("Please submit any TLK related trivia questions by typing @add question + answer Any questions submitted have a chance of being used! You can also PM the bot with @add "question & answer")

PRO:

While having the largest question-file may indicate that the questions are not exactly quality questions, it most certainly means a lot of unique questions have been added to the 'standardized questions'. So, there should be greater variety with less chance of repetition and boredom setting in (an important factor if you're a regular triv player).

CON:

Unless the TrivBot is coded to ensure no repetition of questions, even repetition happens with large question-files. (There does not seem to be any Trivia Bot with this feature, yet).

The bigger the questionfile the harder it is for the OP to keep up with verifications and corrections and your playing will be hindered by question errors which never get corrected - e.g. #trivia at Efnet.

Also, some trivia question-files boost their number by having far too many questions in one or two categories - invariably music - and if these categories bore you to tears, or you're not good at them, your overall trivia experience will be impaired.
