Rate of MP gain while healing is not effected by the total number of MP you have. You should both recover 100mp in about the same amount of time.
This is not quite correct, the reason is that you gain an extra 1 mp per tick, so sitting longer is more efficient than sitting shorter. To give an extreme example lets say player 1 has 400mp and player 2 has 200mp

The mp regaining will look like this:
p1---p2---total
15---15---15
16---16---31
17---17---48
18---18---66
19---19---85
20---20---105
21---21---126
22---22---148
23---23---171
24---24---195
25---05---220 (p2 done)
26---00---246
27---00---273
28---00---301
29---00---330
30---00---360
31---00---391
09---00---400 (p1 done)

That took 11 ticks for player 2 to regen 200mp and it took 18 ticks for player 1 to regen 400mp, so player 1 regened on average 400/18 = 22mp per tick and player 2 regened 200/11 = 18 mp per tick

So there's a rather large difference in regen capabilites the more mp you have if you do it correctly.
