Does development happen at the same rate in the majors? I know that success/failure affects it, but with all things being equal, will his development slow down simply because of being called up?

Not if he's getting playing time. Now, if you bring him up and he rides pine, absolutely.
It sounds to me like you'd be bringing him up to play him daily, though -- so I wouldn't worry on that.
Your only consideration would be his service time, but it sounds like you are fairly late into your season to where this wouldn't affect his future free agency.
