I thought you said that any repeat loop was equal to another, and just 
pointed out that an empty loop (your original test) didn't mean much 
until you put some code in it.

It's pretty well established that the "for each" form is a magnitude 
faster than the counting form. I was just responding to this:

It was a trivial point: that an empty repeat loop of any form is going 
to be quick; it's the code inside that matters. In your examples, the 
code inside happens to be another repeat loop, but that's a different thing.

I suspect we're talking about the same thing and we don't know it. ;)
