I experiemented with the same set up in 1.21.6 and got similar, but better results: 56 fps when beacon is deactivated and 18 fps when beacon is activated (see screenshots below).

There is a noticeable improvement from the 10 fps in 1.21.5 to 18 fps in 1.21.6. But a three-fold fps drop in 1.21.6 is still not desireable compared to the neglagible fps drop in 1.21.4: 56 fps when beacon is not activated and 58 fps when beacon is activated (see screenshot below).

I did more experiments in the 1.21.5 snapshots and the problem seems to arise from 25w09a or 25w09b (I did not test on 25w09a as the menu did not show text). I recorded 58 fps in 25w08a and 9 fps in 25w09b. The snapshot 25w09a may be the culprit as there are bug fixes involving beacons (Minecraft Snapshot 25w09a).
