What's a good value? 5?


It's difficult to say. I've thought 5 was good, but I've seen a recent attack where a bot would GET the form and wait 15 seconds before posting. If you set it too high, it impacts legitimate subscribes, so if you are experiencing this kind of attack, you need to look at the web server logs to determine how long the bot is waiting and set it a bit above that.
