High ISO NR is the culprit, not HTP.

p. 124 of the instruction manual. Resetting to factory defaults enables High ISO NR. Turn it off to restore maximum burst capability.

Highlight Tone Priority on/off has no effect on burst rate.

Edit:
p. 323 gives other causes of lower burst rate:

  • setting ISO to 12800 or H

  • Chromatic Aberration correction: Enabled

  • WB Bracketing enabled

Have you got noise reduction switched on? This will do it as well as highlight tone priority or whatever it's called.
