In all actuality I am thinking that the increased SP gain is more geared towards the true end game growth now which is materia. I am not sure how materia works truely, but I am under the impression that to get your gear spirit bonded you need a certain amount of SP gain while you are playing. The amount of SP now is truly ridiculous, in the stronghold we were pulling over 1000 sp per mob and multiple people in my party that hadnt gotten to 50 yet went up anywhere from 1-6 levels throughout the course of about 3 and a half hours. My gear on the other hand didn't even become completely spirit bonded, so it seems like it takes quite a bit of time to get gear spirit bonded to turn it into materia. Getting materia now is the true end game growth in this game now because of it. What tank in their right mind doesnt want a sword with +20 parry or that extra 65 hp on their armor. And what DD wouldnt like to have an extra 20 attack power.

I think it needs to be lowered, slightly. I've partied for about 6 hours the past 2 days and have gotten from 43-46 almost 47 without even going for xp. We could have probably gotten 40k more xp per hour than what we were getting, which would put me at 49.
