OK I take it that randperm is fine.
Actually I just found the slow performance of my code was due to
something else. Thanks for your attention.

I'm curious how much faster you expect it to be? Your example shows is
that permuting 100 indices, an array access, and a sum take about 70
times longer than an array access and a sum by themselves. Seems
reasonable to me...

I need to permute the indexes of an array, so I found function
randperm very convenient. But it turns out very slow. The
following test shows time increased 60 times. Is there an
alternative to permute an array?
-------------
tic()
f=0.
A=[1:100]
for i=1:10000000
f += A[20]
end
toc()
