Why is a multithreaded mex function slower when I used a parallel pool?

When I run a multithreaded mex function after having used a parallel pool, my function runs a lot slower (10-20x slowdown). Also, the more threads, the slower the function becomes.
Shutting down the pool does not help.
Rebooting Matlab restores the original speed (and scalability) of the mex Function.

I have a vague memory that someone else might have reported something like this a few years ago, but I am not sure I could find the posting. This is something I would recommend creating a support case for.
