I agree with Samuri, this shouldn't affect the crafts like alchemy, inscription, blacksmithy, carpentry, tailoring, tinkering, and maybe taming... These skills are hard to train for a reason; because you can make a lot of profit off them.

Or another option I was thinking of was that you can only get the 2x skill gain up to a certain skill level, say 70 or 80. This way when you start training the skill it's faster but you still have to work at the end to gain skill. It might not make sense to some people since the skillgain gets harder once you hit 70-80+ but think of how much iron/wood you still use to train to 70-80 points. Now it's half that amount! So by the time you would have used all that wood you'd now be at 70-80 and have some left over to keep training.

Right. And i think it`s will be better then now!
