AFAIK there's nothing hw-wise which would explain why it performs much better.
Jay seems certain he is configuring both fairly/evenly...
So maybe the software's not actually doing what he's telling it to do?
I did see something in Damien's twitter feed* which may suggest a hw advantage the SGSII has.
The N9's sensor is slightly larger, but it uses an older (but more "mature") tech called FSI, whereas SGSII uses BSI.

I asked Damien this Qn, but have not had a response yet:
Is the fact that SGSII's using only a slightly smaller "BSI" sensor the reason why it's performing better?
*a bunch of folks were asking Qns thanks to jakiman's comparo
