Which Pentax pancake is faster?
The SMC PENTAX DA 40MM F2.8 LIMITED SILVER?
The SMC PENTAX DA 40MM F2.8 LIMITED?
The SMC PENTAX-DA 40MM F2.8 XS?
You can not mean the SMC PENTAX FA 43MM F1.9 LIMITED, as it is not a pancake design.
And which MF ones are faster? The Voigtlander 40mm f2 SL II is a stop faster, heavier, quite a bit longer.
The Nikkor 45mm f2.8 P ?
The Zeiss 45mm f2.8 Tessar?[/quote]
The 43/1.9 may not have a pancake design but it sure is very small. The 40/2 is also very small.

You must be one of the very few who never experienced the mediocre AF accuracy of the 50mm f1.8. Lucky you!
