Well, it seems huge, but if you're twice his size, and it's scaled by size, then it wouldn't be that surprising, in essence, that you have twice the inflation.
I believe it is intended as a balancing mechanic so that large empires, although they will still outrun a smaller nation that pays more of their income to tech rather easily, won't get so far ahead that the game is over before it even starts, so to speak.
I mean, if you have twice as many cities as he does, and your cities are all of about the same pop level, then at 30-40% tech you're still generating more tech than he is, assuming you've got a few cities focussed on getting gold, primarily.
