You'll gain power if your knock sensor senses knocks and is retarding the timing otherwise it's a waste. Octane reduces the ease of combustion of the fuel.
I'm sure there are other things but I think this would be the main reason to use it.

As others have stated, only real reason for using 100 octane is if you increase the compression ratio or increase timing and you start getting knock. 100 octane is more resistant to knock.
