Interesting -- I'm not terribly familiar with list generation: I've played with Python, so I know it's a thing, but LiveCode has nothing like it built in, and I would never do something like

repeat with i = 1 to 1000000
    put i,"" after aList
end repeat
repeat for each item i in aList
    -- do something
end repeat

I just checked and found that the while loop was even slower :-)

I'm not sure this accomplishes the same task, albeit that the task is synthetic in the first place, but in any case, this is about 20x faster:

on click do
range 10000000
 alert["Done!"]
end
