This would not make much of a difference. I would guess that you have one additional "wrapping" boolean query if you use MultiFieldQueryParser. For query "foo AND bar" the MFQueryParser creates +(fname:foo) +(fname:bar) and QueryParser would create +fname:foo +fname:bar so in this case one level of BooleanQuery more than QueryParser.
