I also have very poor performance with my 2015 rMBP and external Dell 4K display, but it's almost as bad without the display.
Although performance is greatly improved (and, seriously, the developers should be proud of the progress), there's still a lot of work to be done. There's significant lag in even non-network UI (e.g., highlighting the row under the cursor in about:config lags behind the mouse cursor by almost a second).
As much respect as I have for the developers for this progress, I still can't really use software that makes me feel like I'm intoxicated.
