On the iPhone 5 (and 4S):

- Choppy animations in turn-by-turn navigation. Wasn't like this in iOS 7.
- Choppy animations/scrolling in the notification center (only when opened from the lock screen)
- Choppy scrolling when scrolling through wallapers
- Choppy scrolling when going through album view in Music app
- ...

Also choppy but not necessarily iOS 8 related:
- The Facebook app

What else can be added?
 
Choppy animation when pinching in/out of cities in Weather.

Choppy animation on the compass that pops up when using Maps for the first time.
 
IPad Air/mini retina: (translucency must be enabled)

Choppy rotation when keyboard is on screen (everywhere).
Choppy rotation in the App Store app (especially in featured and top charts tabs)
Choppy CC on lock screen, and Safari tab view (with keyboard on screen)
Choppy scrolling through multitasking tabs when keyboard is on in one of the opened apps

...
 
Scrolling through wallpapers always lagged, as well as when rotating the screen with keyboard open on iPad, as well as App Store. Control Center and Notification Center have lagged on lock screen on iPad since iOS 7.0. The App Store rotation apparently was fixed in beta 5, but came back in the GM from what I have heard.
 
The whole iOS feels choppy. Maybe I need to buy the latest released Haswell Extreme processors with Nvidia GTX 980.

Get the smoothness right Apple!!! No iOS 8 for me. Will wait till 8.1 releases.
 
Scrolling in Shared Links in Safari on iPhone 5

No issue with that on my iPhone 5.

Wallpapers has always been choppy. Using notification center on the lock screen was choppy in iOS 7.

iOS 8 runs much smoother on my iPhone 5 than iOS 7 ever did.
