I have never had a PS3, so I have no way of comparing, however my 360 has always been very fast.
My PS4 is wired direct to the router.

My samknows report:

When I had a PS4 at XMAS, there was a speed test you could also run in networking - have you tried that?

An hour ago the bt speed test gave me 11meg (I can't run a speed test now and post it as Netflix is streaming a SuperHD film currently)
Everything else in the house is fine, it's just the PS4.

I downloaded a few games back at XMAS and had no problems with those - so I doubt it would be the traffic management system at PN.

It could have been a one-off though but I'll certainly give it a try. (I know it's not a PS4, but it's worth a go).

Everything else in the house is fine, and the Xbox downloads at line speed, so it must be PS4 related in some way.
1 thing I will say though, is the PS4 isn't getting that much use at the moment as there's not to many games to play, so maybe it's just a coincidence that every time I switch on, the PSN is busy or having problems, but I can't really see it.
I do use the music streaming though (I took a premium sub) and it streams perfectly.

In your screenshot the firmware download was preparing to install so that could have impacted things (maybe limiting HD access speed if it was unpacking stuff) but no doubt you have seen it on other occasions also.
PS4 update + samknows/speedtest screenshots attached.
PS. just noticed my samknows box has not reported any data for this month (bit strange since it is on and running but guess it needs a reboot) so included a snapshot from last month that is representative.
