Not that slow. Mercury is between 100 - 200 mil km away, so at 413 km/s the trip should take about 3 - 6 days.
You can also cut the deployment time on it to 3 months. Cargo ships don't need morale, and 3 months is the minimum to still have a commercial ship.
I always give my ships longer deployment time for role-play reasons anyways and it's not like an extra 50 or 100 tons really matter anyway for commercial ships of that size imo.
