Whether the VI is the same or not is irrelevant when executing the Run VI method - that node can't be executed in parallel at all since it must always run exclusively in the single UI thread. Putting it in a parallel FOR loop will actually make it a bit slower due to additional overhead.
Maybe you should try a series version for comparison and time that.

Even if the node is run in series, it still takes 4 seconds to complete. I guess the execution time of 4 seconds is natural when we try to run a dozen of VIs.
