I confirm this. I am playing Minecraft since 1.1.2 Alpha with the same computer and I have never experienced such low fps: if i stand still fps are easily over 60 like in all the previous Minecraft builds, but when i walk/run they go down to even less than 10. If I approach water minecraft is nearly freezing, at around 5 fps. Singleplayer is unplayable, multiplayer barely.
Did some research on minecraft forum, and seems like lots of people are experiencing the same issues: please look at threads in "Recent Updates and Snapshots", like:
It seems the water is the culprit here. Some infos on my rig: Windows 7 32 bit - Tried both with java 7 and java 8 4 GB RAM Intel Core 2 Duo P7350 2 GHz Nvidia 9600M GT
EDIT: in order to improve performance, I tried to lower render distance, quality on Fast, Clouds OFF and Particles decreased. Nothing helped, performance in 1.8 are still garbage while in 1.7.10 or before are good.
