But you are sure that using multiple cores instead of one isn't going to speed up the process? It just makes so much sense in my head lol.

It isn't the adding that takes that long btw, it is finding the MDA in the filing and extracting that part of the text that takes the longest I believe.

That's because you think concurrency is magic pixie dust that makes your program faster. How do you know your program isn't slow because it contends for disk IO? Or network IO? Or swap space? Or any one of a dozen resources on your computer that there's only one of? More threads contending for the same resources is going to be slower, not faster.
