in reply to Re^2: counting backward (optimize foreach reverse low .. high
in thread counting backward
AFAIK for( @f ) is optimized to act like an iterator without expanding and caching the list.
But in for(reverse @f ) there is no for-context which helps reverse to act differently.
I'm to lazy for benchmarks (we had them before), but this was surely not fixed in 5.8.8
