5 seems a bit much to me... that's the sort of pace I expect for a huge late-game empire, like turn 90-100. I'm generally fine w/ this pace, though I could live w/ slower hosting I guess. How about a solid 4 days per turn, as Pasha is quite amenable to delaying a turn a day if necessary, that should help you out whenever you have a difficult turn?
But I'm fine with whatever consensus is reached.
I figure my empire is as complicated, and I know that at least one of your adversaries tends to lose interest in a game if the turns become too stretched out
