gollark: LuaJIT also isn't managing to execute it fast either.
gollark: Even `for i in range(2**32): pass` is slow in Python and I don't know why.
gollark: But this is an esolang, so I doubt it's very efficiently implemented, and this might be doing some sort of inefficient stuff itself.
gollark: I mean, 2^32 is actually within tractable computation range for modern computers (it's 2 billion or so, and my laptop can probably manage 8GIPS (giga-instructions per second) sequentially).
