GURPS: Ecosystems and Evolution

I'm working on the factors some and I was wondering whether anyone else thinks that the IQ of the species has anything to do with how much they need to eat. I can seem a number of arguments in both directions (from more efficient hunting to more energy spent on brainpower), so maybe it just balances out. Either way, it would be a small effect and may not worth bothering with.

Also, how would special abilities, such as projectiles or invisibility change things? Would those also tend to balance out?
