Conclusion: Patch 4 beta is currently definitely a let down in case of performance, at least on my system which is quite powerful. Results may differ on other configurations. The results conclusion only reflects objective comparison and testing. The announced performance increments in the Patch 4 beta changelog may vary in other game situations.

Incremental performance improvements, reduced CPU bottleneck in a number of scenarios - further improvements pending in future patch.
I asked CA on the patch 4 beta thread to be more specific with that kind of information.
The mentioned improvements are very vague. I cannot imagine your team does not have abilities to specify this further in regards of CPU types / graphic settings. Would be kind of you to provide more specific information here. Thank you very much.
According to the changelog we will need to wait what a"future" patch might bring.
