That doesn't particularly surprise me, but I expect with a bit of work you'll 
be able to find why 2 is sometimes quick and sometimes slow.  If you profile 
the code you'll probably find different code paths are being used, or that 
there is some queueing happening in the slow case, or code is being executed in 
a different context.
