DOHC better than SOHC?

hi all

from what i've heard and red (from http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t174446.html), i can tell that DOHC is more superior than SOHC. I know that with DOHC, we can make different settings for intake and exhaust... But how can there is a significant hp increase just by that? And how can it compensate with the added weight of the second camshaft? Should it be loosing hp instead?

Thanks for your answers...


Sorry for such newbie question
