How about webpage scrolling blur and jitter? Does the 4 flow better?
Yes it's much better having owned both

"Power user" = inflated ego.
It depends on the person saying they are a "power user". A power user could be using the new iPad as a mobile photo studio in some respects. In many ways its much easier / quicker to edit photos on an iPad. Granted a professional will still be limited in some ways. But power user doesn't necessarily have to be using it for business.
When anybody says their a power user , I immediately tune out. It's usually used as a sort of cudgel to make their statements appear as if they carry more weight than ones from us "ordinary" folks.

Lol...wrong!
I still own both. The iPad 4 is noticeably faster in almost any task you can throw at it. For population of my morning RSS reader to rendering photos...exporting a video to downloading and installing updates. Launching apps, browser speed and retention, sync'ing with iCloud in Pages, Numbers and Keynote...I can't think of anything that isn't obvious. The speed of the 4 exceeds the 3 in benchmarks by two fold. You won't necessarily notice double the speed in everything...but you most certainly WILL notice a faster and less 'strained' speed with the latest machine.
Again...I own both. I use both. Daily! The 3 is an excellent tablet. Easily the second best on the market. But if you're looking for the fastest, the iPad 4 is it

Basically, the iPad 3 is pushing a sweat - maxing-out, behind the scenes just to look good when doing basic tasks, whereas the iPad 4 looks as good, but behind the scenes, it's taking a leisurely walk in the park, with resources to spare.
I disagree. Everything is just more fluid on the 4. It's very noticeable for me because i'm a heavy user, and having come from an iPad 3 before it. Some examples are home screen animations and scrolling in content heavy websites. Stuttering is virtually not existant on the 4 whereas the 3 would occasionally struggle at times. Apps also launch much quicker which is useful for me as I switch between many apps quickly.
