Comment(by rlm):

 Maybe this is a more accurate comparison:
 {{{
 sage: L = []
 sage: for E in cremona_optimal_curves(range(200)):
     if E.torsion_order()%2 == 0:
         A = E.mwrank_curve(); t = walltime()
         A.two_descent(verbose=False, second_descent=False)
         t = walltime(t)
         s = walltime()
         _ = two_descent_by_two_isogeny(E)
         s = walltime(s)
         if s > t: print E.label()
         else:
             L.append(t/s)
 ....:
 sage: sum(L)/len(L)
 28.023321958157503
 }}}

 Thus the average speedup is 28x.
