For instance, sending data between four cores on one processor is easier and more efficient than trying to send the same amount between four processors with only one core each.
Just a little mockup of what a single and double quad core setup looks like:

More often than not, multiple cores will share the load between them which will make it look like both are processing the same amount of information. (And at times, they are.) However, with more cores and less resources being used, sometimes one or two cores will take care of most of the load while additional cores sort out smaller loads of data.
