It's close enough design wise to having 2 A4-5000 CPUs to draw some inferences about the performance.

Actually, now that I've looked at things a bit more it's probably about equivalent to a Core 2 Quad or Phenom X4 - not as bad as I thought, actually. Assuming a workload that can actually take advantage of eight cores spread across two CPUs, of course. Still not sure why they did dual Jaguar (netbook/tablet) derived as opposed to single Richland (regular notebook) derived though, the latter seems to me like it would have been the natural fit for a console.
