How is the TP2 faster that the TP?

I am no hardware or software developer but I am sure that there is alot of optimization going on in the software that makes it easier for the hardware to process. For example, when the ps3/xbox360 first came out, the graphical capabilities of both systems were pretty good, but over the years programers have learned to optimize the software so now you have games that look so much better and runs so much faster using the same spec hardware from a few years ago.
