Do you have actual information about how/where these tasks are performed?
Your suggestions would reduce ultimate data flow, but ...
compression requires work done by someone; unless they have a devoted unit to perform compression, changing compression method could actually increase load on CPU.
creating JPG is sometimes called "developing"; it is a data transformation performed by someone; unless they have a devoted unit to perform developing, creating JPEG might actually increase load on CPU. Lowest load might be DNG only.

Yes, I'd be happier if people simply recognized that this is the wrong test for this camera {see my comments in #18 above} and then forgot about the whole thing.
Improving AF on the K-1 would be "great", but I'm guessing that several other improvements would be "more great".

If you look at the special features crammed into this very reasonably priced FF, such as pixel shifting, I believe it is primarily aimed at landscape photographers. Locking onto moving targets tends to be more of an "event" thing, so I wouldn't expect Pentax to have put extra effort into that for the K-1. If they do improve AF, I would expect it to show up in the K-3ii replacement.
{BTW - as a retired engineer, I never expect the people who write advertising to get it right
