calorie increase - is it too slow?

Hi guys - I am 26Y/O 5 ft 11 - i have been working out consistently for about 1.5 - 2 years counting calories... i recently came off a cut at around 12% BF. I transitioned back into a bulk. I usually work out 4 times a week but with my job at the moment I have only been able to work out 3 x a week and this will continue for the next 4 month. I am currently eating 3,175 calories a day and have been for last 6 weeks. This is my weekly averages below:

Week 1 162.6
Upped calories to 3,175
Week 2 163.1
Week 3 163.3
Week 4 163.3
Week 5 163.4
Week 6 163.6
Week 7 164.1
Week 8 163.8

I want to do a slow bulk and i dont think i should be shooting for 0.5lbs a week anyway as i am only working out 3 x a week and I have been training for over a year but do you think this is a bit too slow. Should i up my calories 200 or keep the same?

thanks in advance
