It's possible that the main thread carries some overhead...
But as ziggy points out, it's not a very useful example.
I also wouldn't have the main thread working on the same function (at the same time, as ziggy's double threaded example shows)... you'd be as well kicking off two threads to do half each, and let the main thread do whatever it needs to do elsewhere. Which is the whole point of threading... no?
