In any case, that isn't consistent with what Uthgaard said. He said that the cups would fill up at the same time and specifically mentioned higher levels.

If she needed 20,000 to level and I needed 10,000 to level. I understand that she would get 2 points of xp to my 1... thus filling the cups at the same rate proportionally. This is NOT what was happening. She got well over 1.5 levels to my 1 level.

I remember fairly early in classic there was some kind of pet bug regarding a disparity in exp but it's too vague in memory. I wonder if her being a pet class has something to do with it.
I'm pretty sure he was referring to shared hybrid xp penalties. In his analogy, more of the XP goes to the bigger cups (the hybrids), so less goes to other members of the group. But this is assuming everyone is the same level. He didn't add level as a dimension in his response.

In your situation, if you needed 10,000 to level and she needed 20,000, she would get somewhere higher than 2 if you got 1 per kill. It wouldn't take much of a modifier at all (if you do the math) to cause her to gain 1.5 levels while you gained just 1...
