I generally find that Ornstein's additional speed and aggression makes him the easier of the two to kill. Smough inadvertently hangs back because he's a little slower and if you go after him, Orstein is relentlessly attacking you in the meantime. I typically keep circling away until Ornstein commits to something and Smough isn't right on his heels. He doesn't have a ton of life, so I'm willing to eat some hits to kill him faster.
Super Smough isn't too terrible as long as you have a decent shield. That can mostly alleviate any surprise electric butt-slams. I tend to stay at long distance and bait his jumping hammer attack. When it misses, the F+R2 jumping attack does heavy damage and still recovers fast enough to escape. Super Ornstein is more of a wild card pattern-wise, IMO.
