What could be the reason that Python multiprocessing is slower that a single thread while reading binary files?

def getBinaryData(procnum, filename, pointer_from, pointer_to):
    binary_values = []

    start = time.time()

    with open(filename, 'rb') as fileobject:
        # read file byte by byte
        fileobject.seek(pointer_from)
        data = fileobject.read(1)

        while data != b'' or pointer_position < pointer_to:
            #binary_values.append(ord(data))
            data = fileobject.read(1)
            pointer_position = fileobject.tell()
    end = time.time()
    print("proc ", procnum, " finished in: ", end - start)
    return binary_values

def worker(procnum, last_proc_num, file_path, bytes_chunk, return_dict):
    """worker function"""
    print(str(procnum)   " represent!")
    if procnum == 0:
        greyscale_data = getBinaryData(procnum, file_path, 0, bytes_chunk)
    elif procnum == last_proc_num:
        greyscale_data = getBinaryData(procnum, file_path, procnum * bytes_chunk, os.stat(file_path).st_size)
    else:
        greyscale_data = getBinaryData(procnum, file_path, procnum * bytes_chunk, (procnum 1) * bytes_chunk)

    size = get_size(len(greyscale_data))

    return_dict[procnum] = procnum


def main():
    cpu_cores = 10
    file_path = r"test_binary_file.exe"
    file_stats = os.stat(file_path)
    file_size = file_stats.st_size

    manager = multiprocessing.Manager()
    return_dict = manager.dict()
    jobs = []
    for i in range(cpu_cores):
        p = multiprocessing.Process(target=worker, args=(i, cpu_cores-1, file_path, int(file_size/cpu_cores), return_dict))
        jobs.append(p)
        p.start()

    for proc in jobs:
        proc.join()
    print(return_dict.values())

While single-threaded process finishes to read 10mb file in ~30seconds - the multiprocesses solution gets it done way slower.
