Calculating BigInt exponentiation is fast, but its not that fast once you get
to hundreds of thousands of digits.
That calculates the 600,000+ digit number 123456**123456 once, at compile
time, then simply assigns that huge number to x a million times. So you would
likely get almost the same result by running:
Timer("x=17").timeit(10**6)
