In my first +30 hrs. of playthrough, I was baffled of how slow I advanced through levels with ridiculously low XP gained for various actions.
I only got to level 16, fact which started to scratch my dorsal nerve.
Something had to be done.

While other mods mess up with leveling curve, changing all sorts of Game Settings through bats and CCRs, this mod does not change the vanilla leveling curve OR alter the Game Settings to deal with the issue.

Note:
Altering leveling curve through CCRs and bat files will mess up badly your character level on NG+, if you didn't notice.

This mod offers a healthy and bug-free alternative. Go vanilla purist (even if you installed the mod!) OR take one (or both!) of the perks:

Swift Learner

"With each level of Swift Learner you will gain an additional +10% to experience whenever Experience Points are earned."

Lessons Learned
"The space exploration has taught you some hard lessons, but you've remembered them all.
You gain +1% to earned experience per level gained. (+2% XP at level 2, +3% XP at level 3, etc., +50% XP at level 50.)" (Rank 1)

Long story short:
With Lessons Learned perk, the experience gained will gradually increase +1% for every level, up to level 150.
Alternative combinations are also possible, if you have taken Swift Learner perk (or not).
XP gained from Speech challenges is not affected.
XP gained will be maxed out starting with level 150 (+150%) (Rank 3).

(E.g.) Vanilla 100XP becomes:
100 x 1.63 (player level 63, Rank 2 Lessons Learned) x 1.3 (Rank 3 Swift Learner) x 1.02 (Tea) x 1.1 (Well Rested) = 237.75
Rounded down, you will earn 237XP.

You will no longer linger between levels waiting for the next perk to be taken.

Notes:
1. You can take Lessons Learned right from the start, at level 2.
2. Lessons Learned only: taking the 2nd and the 3rd rank of the perk before required levels is not recommended (level 51 and level 101 respectively).
You will mess up the calculated XP.
3. The XP gained is rounded down, 99.99XP becomes 99XP granted, even if your excellent math says otherwise.

Installation:
1. Mod Organizer 2.5.0 users - install the mod and fire the game.
2. Vortex users - install the mod, add  *SFCivisExperienceGainedGraduallyIncreased.esm  to your plugins.txt file and fire the game.

Go snail or hare. Beware of wolves.
