No better than a i7 with 8GB :p

Seriously speaking, I'm running Mavericks pretty well in a Core2Duo with SSD and 8GB RAM. I suppose that a MBA with these specs will perform way better.

I have that exact machine and installed Mavs yesterday. Working just fine with no issues and I notice some things are actually a bit faster. I can tell Safari scrolling for example is much faster.

Been using it since DP 1 on those specs. Never regretted not getting the I7.
