Why is the parallel version of zheevd slower than the sequential one?

$

I wrote a piece of code to test the speed of the zheevd function(below). Then I use the Intel link advisor to compile it. These are the times I measured:

sequential: 20.15s

TBB: 30.64s

OpenMP: 30.5s

Why is the sequential code faster then either of the parallel version? Is it possible to speedup the zheevd through parallelization?

 

program STB
    !use mkl_service
    implicit none
    integer(4)      :: num, i
    call test_herm()
contains
    Subroutine  test_herm()
        Implicit None
        integer(4), parameter         :: N =  4000, LDA =  N, LWMAX =  100000
        integer(4)                    :: info, LWORK, LIWORK, LRWORK, i,j
        real(8)                       :: r,c

        integer(4), dimension(LWMAX)  :: IWORK
        real(8), dimension(N)         :: W
        real(8), dimension(LWMAX)     :: RWORK
        complex(16), dimension(LDA, N):: A
        complex(16), dimension(LWMAX) :: WORK

        call mkl_set_num_threads(4)
        call random_seed()
        do i =  1,N
            do j =  1,i-1
                call random_number(r)
                call random_number(c)
                A(i,j) = cmplx(r,c)
                A(j,i) = conjg(A(i,j))
            enddo
        enddo

        do i =  1,N
            call random_number(r)
            A(i,i) = cmplx(r,0)
        enddo

        LWORK  = LWMAX
        LIWORK = LWMAX
        LRWORK = LWMAX

        !call zheevd('N', 'L', N, A, LDA, W, WORK, LWORK, RWORK, &
                     !LRWORK, IWORK, LIWORK, info)
        CALL ZHEEVD( 'N', 'Lower', N, A, LDA, W, WORK, LWORK, RWORK,&
                  LRWORK, IWORK, LIWORK, INFO )

        write (*,*) "Info: ", info
        write (*,*) "Lwork: ", LWORk
        write (*,*) "Liwork: ", LIWORK
        write (*,*) "LRWORK: ", LRWORK
        !write (*,*) W
    End Subroutine test_herm
end program STB
