Both decreasing the amount the blinds jump and increasing the starting stacks will increase how long the tournament takes. Many good players will simply wait longer than they would now looking for a good spot to play. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but it will cause the tournaments to take longer. And the 25/50 to 50/100 jump is pretty standard in the tournaments I play, even live that's pretty typical for any tournament under a $100 buy-in.
