There most certainly exist DPS checks. There are several places where mechanics is such that if you do not kill certain things quickly enough you will wipe. The best known example would be the Infernal Nail(s) in the Ifrit trial. If the party's average damage per second dealt against those is too low, then it is a wipe. That is a DPS check.
