This is not the case here. It's easy to check that the time it takes to run the no-op Python loop is proportional to the number of steps, which means it is not skipped: let start = reltime() python for i in range(10000000): pass echo reltimestr(reltime(start)) let start = reltime() python for i in range(100000): pass echo reltimestr(reltime(start)) I also tried adding some code to the body of each loop in my first example and still got about 30-fold difference.
