CNET: There have been reports by some recent Surface Pro 3 users -- specifically those buying the Intel Core i7 devices -- that their tablets are overheating. Microsoft officials responded publicly on Tuesday to those reports, saying a fix is in the works and that it will be available "as soon as possible." (Officials declined to say if that means on the next Patch Tuesday, which is September 9, or some other date.)

Your tablet's shrinking battery capacity isn't a hardware problem.
Sure, everyone is fawning over the Surface Pro 4 these days. (And rightly so - it's pretty stellar.) But, considering what you might need from a PC, you might not have to plunk down a huge wad of cash for Microsoft's best yet.
A limited number are experiencing this? Should this translate to everyone who bought one? I jest of course, but I do wonder what the actual numbers are as it's not a big seller compared to other tablets.
I installed 32-bit Chrome on one of the work computers, just to see how it fared against IE and Firefox. It is fast, much faster than Firefox. I don't know what they've had to sacrifice to get those speeds (security?), but it makes a difference on our slow, outdated work desktops. Which is to say I might consider installing it at home.
