This is what has me scared to upgrade. I was dead set on getting my Pro today, but I'm not going to deal with worse performance than the base machine even at the same resolution.
edit: People seem to be getting confused based on my title. What I mean is that even if you set the PS4 Pro to 1080P, it will still render at a higher resolution and downsample, giving the performance issues. So there is no possible way to achieve the base PS4 experience. Nobody is saying it's unplayable, but it DOES drop up to 6fps in spots versus the base PS4.
Here is an article by Eurogamer about it, thanks catashtrophe. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/d...-pro-titles-running-slower-than-base-hardware

The Last of Us on PS4 Pro runs worse than the standard PS4 model while targeting 60fps. With the resolution set to 1800p in its 60fps mode on PS4 Pro, we see frame-rate drops in places that played out smoothly on the original machine.
Sadly, there's no way to restore the same level of 60fps performance on PS4 Pro - as even switching its front-end video setting to output at 1080p causes the machine to natively render at 1800p, incurring the same frame-rate hit. Note: this is patch 1.07, and may improve with future updates.
