Maybe all this depend on the screen / font height.

In my case Emacs fills the screen height with about 60 lines and 
scrolling 5 lines at wheel "click" seems too much.

This value (5/"click") could be reasonable if one has 100 - 150 lines 
(or more) at screen height.

If this is the case, it is not so simple to find optimal values.. Fixing 
the default to 2 or 3 could be the solution.
