When Kramnik or Kasparov play against a group of players with an Elo average of
2600 like in the Olympiad their rating can very easy escalate by as much as 200
points, but if you change the group of players with a higher Elo average such as
2700 then you will notice how hard it is for them to gain more than 75
performance Elo rating points. This also hold true for lower rated players, if
you get a player with an Elo of 2200 and face him to play against a group with
an average Elo of 1800 it won't be unusual for him to get a performance rating
of 2400 or higher.
