Or you could test it:
on mouseUp
put 1000000 into n
put the millisecs into t
repeat n
put ("this is a string with foo in it" contains "foo") into r2
end repeat
put the millisecs - t into t2
put the millisecs into t
repeat n
put ("foo" is in "this is a string with foo in it") into r1
end repeat
put the millisecs - t into t1
put t1 && t2
end mouseUp
