I see similar results here on Red Hat 7.2 with the latest 2.2.x GNOME:

[kmaraas km kmaraas]$ time find ~/.gconf -name '*.xml' -exec cat {} >
/dev/null \;
 
real    0m7.595s
user    0m0.342s
sys     0m0.361s
[kmaraas km kmaraas]$ time find ~/.gconf -name '*.xml' -exec cat {} >
/dev/null \;
 
real    0m0.660s
user    0m0.330s
sys     0m0.320s
[kmaraas km kmaraas]$ time find ~/.gconf -name '*.xml' -exec cat {} >
/dev/null \;
 
real    0m0.657s
user    0m0.324s
sys     0m0.324s

This is a PIII 850 laptop.
