Why is Rabbeinu Peretz the Go-To Tosafist for Mesechet Meilah?

I'm half way through Mesechet Meilah w/Tosfot. Tosfot, here, so far, upon quoting an individual tosafist, 80-90% of the time quotes Rabbeinu Peretz. I'm not seeing the usual references to R"Y or R"T - why is Rabbeinu Peretz the go-to Tosafist for Mesechet Meilah? Are there other tractates where a single Tosafist dominates?

To answer the first question, the Tosfot of Meilah was compiled by a student of Rabbeinu Peretz and was based largely on his teachings, so it makes sense that he would dominate the work. See here for a list of authors of the various tosfot and their main sources.
