Most people worry far too much about that. In most tests, it is far less
than 1/3 f/. Negligible. Few people can interpret metering to that degree
of accuracy.
well the few tests i did aiming both lense at 80-90 range at the same grey
wall, showed both manuals giving me a faster speed (+1 stop)than the pentax
original,at all apertures excluding the f/5.6 to f/8 that were giving me 1,5
stop more speed
