Closer to 8000' in commercial airliners. While it's technically hypoxia, insofar as it's less oxygen than at sea level, I don't know if 8000' is enough to cause the effects you're describing. Anecdotally, I'm a fat smoker, and I don't seem to notice any of those negative effects at 8000', but I certainly notice them at around 12000' or so.
