A380 on-time perfomance

Noticed that BA209 A380) is constantly delayed out of T3 (>2hrs yesterday and >1hr today) while BA207 (B744) is usually on time.
Anyone knows if this is a general phenomenon? A380s difficult to turn around at a busy airport acc to schedule (more than other heavies?)
Or is it because gates 40/42 at LHR T3 which BA uses for their A380 departures are not really suited for A380 traffic?
