An average empire can put five slots on a huge domed colony. It usually takes a few years to build even one city. I don't see anything out of line.

Medium freighters + Population Liner III can only hold 1M, still. Having to get module IV or so is a bit much to research just to double what you can do with module I.
Well, it's my opinion that it is a bit much to try to get 2M colonists and their necessities onto a medium-sized ship, from the design standpoint of Proportions. Doubling the capacity of a population transport isn't something I think should be a casual achievement. On the other hand, it doesn't take any research to just build two ships and fleet them...

Yet another hardcoded problem I noticed: Space yards make the penalties trivial. A colony with 1M population can build at 2000 per resource per turn.
As Phoenix-D pointed out, you're mistaken about that.
