Shooting RAW Continuous means the P1000 processes for about 30 seconds?

Any way around the very long processing time between each continuous group in RAW shooting in S Priority?

If you are shooting RAW, I don't understand this "processing"…
The only thing happening is the buffer gathering the files and
transferring them to the card. Or am I missing something?

The files are rather small so the demand on the buffer can't be
too heavy! …or is it?

Possibly a faster SD card than you're currently using?
 
All but Nikon's latest and greatest pretty much top out at about 30MB/s write speed, with the SanDisk Extreme Pro 64GB U3 UHS-I being in the top 3. In comparison, the average is in the neighborhood of 25MB/s, with the lower end cards (i.e. SanDisk Ultra) being in the 20MB/s range.
 
Note that most of these cards boast upwards of 90MB/s in their marketing, but that is not what they deliver in low to mid range Nikon cameras.
