It should be mentioned in the docs. (And probably is and I don't know where.)
In the dictionary for the "repeat" control structure. ;-)
"Use the for each form if you want to perform an action on each chunk
in a container. This form is much faster than the with countVariable
= startValue to endValue form when looping through the chunks of a
container."
(It doesn't go into detail about why this is so, though, and that
would be interesting and perhaps useful information to add.) There
also used to be some mentions of this in the cookbook, although the
cookbook seems to have gone away.
