It probably won't be population based fwiw. I'm a big fan of Schwartzberg's method:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwartzberg%27s_weighted_voting

fwiw the cube root method gives a current size of just under 2000 members, with 2154 for a potential peak 10 billion population.

Quite simply, your hypothetical world parliament wouldn't need to be so big: there would still exist many legislatures below it for country specific things; and a parliament that size would be logistically unfeasible.

It should be 0 - no world government. Please

There already effectively is a world government, just ond that is fragmented, unaccountable, and run for the benefit of the elite.
