Mobs move the same speed as live, however their hitboxes in straight directions are slightly larger (unsure of reason). Try strafing the next time you are running from something without SoW. You will avoid much more than trying to simply outrun.
Charm aggro does not work like on Live, making bard charm kiting impossible. Sending a pet against a mob within a group of aggro'd mobs will only have the pet and the original mob fight, while the rest of the pack will continue to chase the PC.
NPCs can finish casts on PCs when they go out of LOS, making pulling casters in dungeons much more difficult than on Live.

I used to kite beetles in North Karana with my wizard in the early days on live without SOW. It took longer but I could eventually outrun them and nuke

This is correct. Beetles actually ran slightly slower than other mobs on live. I know this because I hunted Sand Scarabs almost exclusively because I thought they were easier than other mobs in terms of melee (they're not, but I thought that), and also because I could actually run from them if I needed to.
If you used your fatigue bar strategically by jumping over hills to get more distance, you could actually kite beetles without sow.
