It is a bit strange though that the foreach always seams to be faster. If we

I know you were demonstrating the difference between "repeat for each key" and "repeat with i=", and using 'sum' to do so (very effectively).

But for completeness, just in case someone wanted to sum an array, I would point out that  you could also do

put the long seconds into tStart
put sum(tData) into tSum3
put the long seconds - tStart into tTime3
and that would another 4x faster again :-)
