Found that thread in GAF (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=915229) with a summary:

• X1 Marginally faster CPU (due to higher clock speed, 1.6ghz vs 1.75ghz)
• PS4 - Has actually significantly more GPU benchmarking than thought compared to Xbox1, nearly 100% more.
• CPU + GPGPU management is essential and seems no where near optimal this early in the generation.

Some slides.

 

The key point is they say bot CPUs are weak and bootleneck to AI processing... weird they can't explain how AI processing can hold the resolution of a game from 1080p to 900p... the bench showed cleary they have a lot of PS4's GPU power to be used.

Have a nice read.

In that Benchmark X1 Marginally faster CPU not because of the higher clock speed (1.6ghz vs 1.75ghz); it is due to the fact XOne CPU was using ESRAM, which only works in theory on that Benchmark(ESRAM is mostly used by the GPU). In reality, real game application, Devs already said PS4 CPU is slighty faster than XOne CPU, and the Combo CPU + GPU is massively in favour to PS4.
