I've a 2 million Energy surplus. But I keep my population small and have only once ever cashed in one of those regular Pop gifts to add to it. Without any other intervention by me (aside from occasionally taking pop-reducing Whacks), they've stubbornly grown from 1000 to 50,000 people in just over a month's time.
I suspect if this kind of 2% per cycle growth is allowed to go on, players will have billions and billions of Pop by the end of the year, if they haven't all cannibalized themselves for lack of Energy and Food and Bliss, making Planet Baen one of those nightmare apocalyptic colonization failure scenarios.
