How to install the parallel version of newest abinit8.0.8 ?

I have installed the parallel version of newest abinit8.0.8. However, when I run it with 8 cpus , I found the running time(430sec) is no less than serial version(450sec). I've tried the parallel version of abinit7 with 8 cpus, the time is 180sec, much less than serial version (450sec)

I installed the abinit7 and abinit8.0.8 in the same way:
./configure CC=/home/user/mpich3.2-intel2016/bin/mpicc FC=/home/user/mpich3.2-intel2016/bin/mpif90 --enable-mpi=yes
make
make install

How to solve the problem?Thanks!
