After a sufficiently large number of generations, the increase in [[average information]] may result in the green cluster. Actually, the mean fitness is the same for both red and green cluster (about 65%). The effect of this adaptation is not very salient in a 2-dimensional case, but in a high-dimensional case, the efficiency of the search process may be increased by many orders of magnitude. Besides, a Gaussian distribution has the highest [[average information]] as compared to other distributions having the same second order moment matrix, Middleton, 1960.
