Despite many other factors would provide pro and cons of a 36 MP sensor, the bandwidth for a camera with 36 MP and 4 fps shooting rate and a camera with 18 MP and 8 fps is exactly the same assuming equal pixel/bit number sampling depth.
Because Canon used a dual Digic IV on the 7D (18 MP-8fps), Nikon shoud have a similar CPU architecture, both mono or dual processor, as well as the same (or better) CPU-RAM bus bandwidth performance.

Well, if V1 can handle 60fps @ 10MP, I don't see why the D800 should be slower <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
