1. slo0wness would only mean that the imperium contorlled space would shringk and that you would get pocket empires

2. evdn that slow, imperium still has  superior tech in .e. communication and propulsion. the imperium already had nearly annihilated the tau and then the tyranids came up as threat and the iperium had to retreat it#s forces form this small xenos empire in the segmentum ultima to deal witht he more dire threat.

3. will it change the stance of the eldar towards the mon keigh?... they ally themselves witht he imperium if they can borrow the numbers of the empire to keep them alive, they never act so out of anyhting else and can only ally themselves with maybe a chapter of space marines or for a  small, territorial campaign, never ally itsefl on a wide scale or with recognition form the imperium and not just a local imperial commander. to give you a demotivation: you never ally yourself with those that killed your brethren and have a hold on your worlds, that occupy your planets.

4. read the unremembered empire ;9
