Possibly the synchronized-seqscans logic kicking in, resulting in this
guy not having to do all his own I/Os. It would be difficult to make
any trustworthy conclusions about performance in such cases from a view
of only one process's results --- you'd need to look at the aggregate
behavior to understand what's happening.
