Default How fast is this blind structure?

Played in a 4 table tournament this week. It was a low buy in tournament, $35 for (T1500), plus one $30 rebuy (T2500). The blinds did seem to escalate a little too quick in the middle portion of the tournament (even if it was a small tournament). We went from 2 tables to one in less then half an hour and even the big stacks were being threatened by the blinds at the final table. Here is the structure, (each level lasted 15 minutes):
Blinds
25-50
50-100
100-200
200-400
300-600
400-500
500-1000
1000-2000
2000-4000
3000-6000
4000-8000
5000-10000

I would appreciate any thoughts on how fast this structure is compared to other low buyin tournaments. I think I had the chance to see maybe 2 flops. I was forced to do a lot of push or fold preflop because even thought I had an average to big stack, I rarely had more then 10 bb's.

I'm assuming this is a live tourney? If so, it's a crapshoot at best

Wow. Why do they escalate so fast, going from 25-50 to 50-100 and 100-200? Also the starting blinds are pretty bad. I would hate to play with 30BBs starting out. I prefer to be a lot deeper when starting out AT LEAST 50BB (that would be the bare minimum for me to consider playing the tournament)
