Have you actually compared them side-by-side or are you comparing experiences separated by years?
Side-by-side. The Nexus S still works as it always has (well, not considering the changes the updates have made).
I've recently was forced to work with Nexus S (with Android 4.1, naturally) for a bit and quickly found out that it's laggy as hell when compared to Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.2.x/4.3 (I don't have Nexus 4). When I've used it as my primary phone years ago I've not noticed these same lags all that much.
The lag have ALWAYS been there in every device, regardless of spec. The frame rates have been a bit worse since 4.1 came out. The input latency seems about the same (I can't say for certain since I wasn't able to test those side-by-side, of course).
***SNIP interpreted language rant***
I'm not going to do your research for you, so if you want to know what geekbench measures you can look for yourself, but I will say this: it categorizes its tests as int, fp, and memory/streaming performance. The memory category was of particular interest to me since that has been a consistent weak area for ARM. The intel cpu had a better memory interface (upto about four times better).
