SAE is only used for authentication. Once a station is authenticated, everything should behave exactly the same as an open mesh, so there should be no effect on throughput (this may change once AMPE and encryption are released). I would suspect on other factors, for instance configuration, kernel or changes to your wireless environment (are you running your tests in a controlled environment?). To be absolutely sure, you could repeat your SAE throughput measurements with the same kernel and configuration but over unauthenticated peer links. The HOWTO explains how to create unauthenticated peer links (http://o11s.org/trac/wiki/HOWTO#openmesh). Throughput numbers should be identical.
