using a packet sniffer i found that xchat just does a /who $chan when it joins a channel, does a /whois on someone who changes nick, and /who's the channel every 60 seconds.

Which means that overall, it is a REALLY bad client from the servers point of view because it uses a LOT of bandwidth to achieve nothing.
