Doesn't sound that bad to me, it actually sounds a lot like the gains on IN-X. I managed to GM Lumberjacking there just with casual harvesting with an EUO macro while I was watching TV or doing homework.
There are other harder skills and I think that the problem is that *all* the gathering professions seem like they take longer because you can't set a macro for it, then go away for 12 hours and come back to +5.0 from pure repetition. You have to gather stuff, then run to go bank it when you're overweight. Pause to fill out the anti-macro gump, etc. Plus, the whole time you're waiting to get to the next point where you can mine the next type of ore or chop the next type of log so you're impatient.
I think it's fine. Also, remember that mining 1200 logs doesn't mean 1200 repetitions, more like 400 at most.
