Doh! You're right of course, how silly not to notice it before - the break out test is completely stupid. (I guess in the back of my mind I must have thought the values were coming out in order - which of course they are not). It breaks out very early and that explains why it's so much faster. If I change the test to >400000 (which gets me about 3/4 through the hash) then I get the following results... Benchmark: timing 1000 iterations of each, keys... each: 2 wallclock secs ( 2.39 usr + 0.00 sys = 2.39 CPU) @ 418.41/s (n=1000) keys: 2 wallclock secs ( 2.23 usr + 0.00 sys = 2.23 CPU) @ 448.43/s (n=1000) Rate each keys each 418/s -- -7% keys 448/s 7% -- ...so it looks like keys generally wins - because of the 'random' order that things come out, you can't tell how soon a loop test break you out of the loop.
