According to MacTracker, even the newest, Mid-2013, 5th generation iPod Touch (1) has only an A5 chip (i.e., not even an A6 or A7).
So: you have 2 latest-model devices running iOS 8 on A8 or A8x CPUs, and 1 trying to run it on an A5 chip, and the latter 1 is a lot slower than the former 2.
And you are surprised about that?
An A5 device is the *minimal* system capable of running iOS 8, and Apple notified us of that fact when it released iOS 8.
