Newton's third law. Most of the depictions I've seen of railguns describe them as slow firing but dealing massive damage with each shot. I would expect a lot of that reload time is letting the driver circuitry cool down and recharge.
If I recall correctly, there's a weapon in Elite(dangerous?I only remember the old dos one) that shoots "heat sinks" at the enemy, maybe that could be a useful secondary for the railgun starship
