I'm confident they can pull it off.
If I recall correctly, we pulled off 6.x second cycles at the MI Championships (x less than 5). There were even some who were pushing to schedule 5.5 seconds. This caliber of teams and volunteers can handle it easily. Especially with that ^ volunteer.

One of the things that can slow down things worst is an announcer/MC. Keep the introductions on track, and you can make up time from an occasional slow round. But if you have a slow announcer or MC, you constantly lose time. (I don't know who's doing it at IRI.)
