I will do the test now, and report the results.

Hmmm....wonder if I'm doing something wrong?
Set the mode to 'M' and then as the instructions say, do a 1/30, 1sec, 2sec, 3sec, 4sec shutter speed snaps.
Tried as DNG, and exporting from lightroom, the pixeltest app scans in like 3 seconds. Nothing in the preview,
histogram shows nothing, and no dead/hot pixels.

Is it possible the test is running on 14M+ pixels in 3 seconds?

export is TIFF, 16 bit, sRGB colorspace

Also tried using PEF, exporting in Pentax PhotoLab to Tiff, 16bit, basically same exact result. 3 seconds to scan
a 14MP picture seems a bit fast to me!

Default threashold of 60 is too high... drop it down.
At 20 I get 2 HP. 10 seems about right. Look for clustered coordinates. Yes scan is very fast.
