I'm a master pistoleer, andtested against shooting dire cats with bodyhit (default attack). First attack, I was not wearing anything but armor, and was attacking consistantly at 4 second intervals. Then I equipped a +10 pistol speed bandolier, and attacked another cat. Again, consistant attacks 4 seconds apart. What is wrong here?

Cooldown for individual specials appears to either be completely hardcoded, or scale to a cap (actually, all the ones I've actually tested this on have all appeared with hardcoded non-changing cooldowns). I *think* the modified speed on the gun simply decides the time between two shots that are ready to fire right away, not the special/group specific cooldown.
There's also the timer uncertainty to be aware of. Your log does not take into account the 0.1 seconds shaved off, easiest way to test those is to simply throw the special into a macro and note when it's not firing and then fiddle with the pauses between specials to make it fire.

doc buffs that increase your combat speed seem to be the only really noticable improvement in dps.
