Based on the logs in this thread (thanks Sesserdrix) I think we can safely say that point #2 is proven.

I'd like to see further testing on point #3. You've proven that a high delay weapon will not slow the pet attack rate, but I'd like to prove the inverse as well. I've heard from multiple sources that low delay weapons ala FS Daggers would help increase pet attack rates on live, but I've heard conflicting reports about this mechanic on P99.

Low level summoned pets will not dual wield, even when given 2 weapons.

Higher level summoned pets will dual wield, without the need for 2 weapons.

Giving a summoned pet a low delay weapon will not increase the speed of it's attacks.

Giving a summoned pet an extraordinarily high damage will increase it's damage, but this becomes harder to do as you level up and your pet's natural damage goes up.

Giving a summoned pet 2 weapons is a waste of time unless they are very high damage or have a proc, as it will not affect their ability to dual wield.

Charmed pets, regardless of level, will not dual wield unless given 2 weapons.
