Thanks to Roger and Ross for suggestions. I also think that benchmark timing will be slightly different if all items are in fact unique.

Any chance to make special code for *./@~: ?

The monads i.~ i:~ ~: ~. use the same underlying algorithm,
so the efficiency boils down to details of the representation and how
you work with the representation.

The problem can be solved in many ways. If efficiency is a concernyou'd have to do some benchmarks to see which one is more efficient.
*./@~:
i.~ -: i:~
# = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
-:~.

My guess is that the first one is the most efficient.

Any suggestion for a good phrase for testing whether all items are unique?
eg.
    unique 2 3 1
1

    unique 4 2$'ABC'
0
