Automated extractors harvest at the same rate as extractors that have 3 drones.

I tested this on the Hand of Darkness mission. I choose this mission because it ends at 5:12 if you don't kill the first hybrid and you start with drones and one extractor.

I was able to harvest a total of 696 gas by 5:12 with and without the Automated Extractors ability. Turning on Vaspene Efficiency allowed me to gather a total of 845 gas with and without Automated Extractors by 5:12.

The mission starts you off with 100 free gas, so the net gain was 100 gas less than the totals I posted above.

The test results where 696 gas by 5:12 without Vaspene Efficiency and 845 with Vaspene Efficiency. If you factor out that you start the mission with 100 gas then it was 596 gas collected in 5:12 and 745 with Vaspene Efficiency.
