It kind of has to be less performant, just because ECDHE uses more bignum crypto primitives.

Yeah, that makes sense.

I was mostly curious about how much faster their new implementation was over the old, and how much slower it was than RSA-RC4-SHA.

I think that with the session resumptions they got by using session tickets, this could easily end up being a net gain for them.
