I expected that even if there is some performance regression in the lookup or modifying operation, the iteration should not be slower.
My understanding is that the all-int-keys case is an outlier. This is due to how ints hash, resulting in fewer collisions and a mostly insertion-ordered hash table. Consequently, I'd expect the above microbenchmark to give roughly the same result between 3.5 and 3.6, which it did. -eric
