In both runs the same computations are done (sequentially resp. parallel), so the gc should be the same. But still using 2 cores is much slower than using 1 core (same program - no communication).
The same GCs are done, but GC has to be done on a single core (currently; parallel GC is in development) so you will see a lot more lock contention when the GC kicks in.
