Don't quite understand the power issue that Robert and yourself experience? I am working with D850 raw files on an IPad Pro. I don't upload all my files direct to the iPad but load them (very quickly) from a QXD card onto a WiFi external drive. From there I can browse the uploaded files, deleting as I go, and only bring the files I want to work on, onto the iPad. Certainly if I tried to upload all the files to the iPad it will falter, and I have yet to attempt some of the stacked files that Robert can generate or do any length videoing with the D850. So maybe I am running just ahead of a 'power shortfall tsunami'.

I wouldn't underestimate the sheer power that your iPad Pro has. If it's the original iPad Pro you're still talking about a 6 core processor running at around 2.2Ghz (yes there are 3 performance and 3 economy cores but that's still a fair bit of grunt) and way more than my old Mac Mini! 

Granted though most of my complaints were when editing 4K video... at that point my old Mac really showed it couldn't handle it.
