Can anyone get the sequential speeds dpreview got on the E-P5?

I am trying to get the fastest SUSTAINED sequential speeds out of my E-P5.

The review here... http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/olympus-pen-e-p5/12

The mode I was trying to hit was JPEG/Large/Fine at 5.0fps.  But I'm getting less than half that, only 2.0fps after the buffer fills.  All the other numbers are slow too.  2.0fps vs 3.0fps for RAW H, and the buffer seems to fill faster than theirs does.  I only get 23 shots vs 30 shots in RAW L.

IS is off.  Shutter speed is 1/1000.  I have the "L/H fps" menu settings at the fastest, 5 and 9.

I'm using the same SanDisk Extreme Pro 95MB/s card.

Any ideas?

I am timing it by recording audio.  Screenshot below with notes.  The 0.0 to 13.0 axis is seconds.

First set of numbers is how many frames before the slowdown, and how long it took.  Second number is FPS after the buffer is full.
