in a nutshell... A->B faster, as previously mentioned.
example... the only car of mine i ever compared back to back powershifting versus standard shifting as quickly as i could... my previous daily driver 2008 civic si, i dropped some tenths powershiftting versus not. the increased acceleration was felt the most during the wheel slip when 2nd gear engaged. and yes, on high traction surfaces, small amounts of wheel slip actually accelerate the car faster and when the slipping ends there is an inertial boost of torque as the excess energy in the flywheel and crankshaft is captured, similiar to the "boost" you feel when an automatic car shifts well.
