I did another test with a little bit more source code
to compile (3 KLOC) in order to make sure that the 
effect isn't solely the startup of the java vm.

Sun Java 6 Update 4:

1 core: 
real    0m2.346s
user    0m2.220s
sys     0m0.072s

2 cores:
real    0m4.013s
user    0m6.980s
sys     0m0.192s

A rather dramatic difference!?!?
