Methodology:
- Extract all levels, HP, and EXP
- Calculate EXP / HP = Efficiency
- Determine mobs which have greater efficiency than Galloperas.
There is nothing with a sufficiently high level at this moment that is as efficient as Galloperas. However, there are some very good results for lower levels.
Please note: Although these mobs have very efficient HP/EXP ratios, that does not always make for good training. Make sure to take mob and map layout into consideration as well. I also have no idea if some of these mobs still exist in the game so... yeah.
A higher efficiency rating means better training.

For other mobs that make for excellent training (though not as high efficiency as galloperas) try Scholar Ghosts. They're really the only alternative if you can consistently hit higher than 100k/hit.

Helmet Pepes made it on that list? No wonder they're so good. Great map layout and a high efficiency.
Fiel, any way that you could make a script to parse the map files to determine map layout efficiency?

Wasn't Scholar Ghost previously a bot catching monster?

I thought scholar ghosts were in a hidden street in Magatia.

Nope, Scholar ghosts are those ex bot catchers in korean Folk Town.
You are thinking about Sites.

Those are Site. Scholar Ghosts (as said above) were a bot catching monster, but now they're a regular area boss in KFT.

Lol, I was looking at that as well. They're in Singapore, or Mysterious Path 2.. right before MP3. I think that map had a decent spawn, but I'm not 100% sure.

Fiel, may I suggest using Efficiency = EXP/HP * (200-PDRate-MDRate)? Although it doesn't make a difference in most cases, it does scale the number nicely.
Edit: Eh. EXP/HP has the advantage of being quickly determinable, I guess.

I personally don't think Gallop's should be added seeing as Nexon will most likely change it since it's way broken.

The spawn is okay, but they're mixed with Pac Pinkies, which are level 58 88. =| It can be a problem for the lower leveled people.
Edit: What the hell I didn't bother checking the Big Bang changes. Either way, they're still much higher level than Pac Pinkies.

Rotting Skeletons have absurd rates as well (for their level).

Can you post the top 5-10 most efficient mobs of level 120+? Thanks.

Would there be a way for you to post the number of monster spawns per map somewhere as a general guide to find maps with mobbing potential? Or would that be too much useless work/ already done somewhere?
