Taken from https://www.ietf.org/registration/attendance.py


15 countries account for 90% of attendance (or rather, registration).

Based on GDP, the US should have about 33% of attendance, so the
observed 47% is not too much above expectation.

Seeing that China is 3rd on the list, with 7% of attendance, if there
are particular visa problems regarding China, some attention should be
paid to it.
