parallel-extensions

I am trying to make my calculating application faster by using Parallel Extensions. I am new in it, so I have just replaced the main foreach loop with Parallel.ForEach. But calculating became more slow. What can be common reasons for decreasing performance of parallel extensions?

Thanks
