I think it is the common process of conferences become more expensive as
soon as they become larger and more popular. You need a complete
different approach to logistics when you deal with up to a thousand
people or deal only with small crowd of perhaps 100 to 150 people.
I am not in charge for the EP 2014 financial part but it is obvious that
you can not organize a conference for the same costs per persons
if you deal with 100 attendees or 1000 attendees. More people, more
different aspects to be considered, higher costs...I think there is no
real way out of there  - expect all 1000 attendees in a huge barn and
tell them to bring their own beer and burgers..well, perhaps an option :-)
