surprised at your comment about dropping a file size not working.  My 461 never cuts better than when I run a 5/32 file over it at the end of the chain.

He might be sharpening deeper down in to the gullet, or using a different offset from you, getting a different hook, etc etc. I never change my file size, but I go pretty deep in to the gullet to retain the hook, often grinding in to the end of the link before the cutter. The tip/hook is what you start to lose as the tooth gets more shallow.
