That's enough to know that the foreach loop does not reuse the space
for the iteration variable. That was what I cared about.
Note that using BigInt as iteration variable will probably cause a
BigInt allocation per iteration, because operations on BigInt in general
will allocate a new BigInt result. So `++key` will probably create a new
instance of BigInt each time it's executed.
Right, but this is not a limitation of the API, just the implementation.
It could be improved.
