Could someone please explain this? Are the bonuses not large enough? I thought mobs actually gave more exp when killed by a group...

My understanding of how it works is that you do get a "group" XP bonus for each added person to the group. However, the XP per kill is still split among group members so if the bonus isn't high enough you still receive less total XP per kill than if you were solo. This is theoretically made up by increasing your kill speed/reducing down time.
I'm sure depending on level and location and kill speed there will always be a "sweet spot" of group size to earn the most XP per hour. I'm guessing the sweet spot is to have enough people to kill mobs constantly without stopping but not so many people that you kill all the mobs and end up waiting for repops (or something like that).
*edit*
Changed wording to be more clear. I meant XP per hour not XP per kill. XP even with bonus will always be less than solo but would theoretically be made up in increased kill speed/reduced down time.
