If you shoot any kind of action at all, you will want to use 1066x CF card with the 5DSR...
I just picked up a SanDisk Extreme Pro 160MB/s CF card and a 95MB/s SD with 30% discount on my new 5DsR. Will try them out tonight when I get home.

Basically you are correct. However, in my experience the 5DsR is only painfully slow when I wish to view my images directly after a burst. A burst can also be a series of captures shot closely after one another during a wedding (down the aisle shot for example). Not a typical burst like in sports or wildlife but if I hit the shutter 15 times in 8 seconds the buffer still needs 7 more seconds to clear. It takes some getting used to coming from a 5D3 which was practically instantaneous.
I've shot a kids sports game on manual exposure mode, 250 images in 15 minutes, and I haven't found myself anxiously waiting for the buffer to clear at all.
If need be, I can shoot one image to check within a second and then shoot the rest. If I need the ultimate action camera I can shoot jpeg only and fire away.
