If modern PS3s don't have any hardware level emulation features and still manage to emulate the PS2 well then that is absolutely miraculous considering how slow the PPE is. The only thing I can possibly attribute that to is Sonys massive financial resources and direct access to the engineers who worked on the PS2 allowing for potentially amazing levels of optimization when combined. 3rd party open source devs don't exactly have that though so unless sony decides to make an official one I stand by my statement that it's unlikely to run well.
The PS4 uses an 8 core jaguar based design with a turbocore of 2.0GHz. Its per core speed is similar to the PPE in the PS3 actually. But it has 8 full fledged cores and the GPU and CPU both on the same die. It's amazing how little per core performance has grown on consoles over the last 15 years.
