Well, test it out: (maybe change the 100000 to some number so that the alias takes at least 10 seconds to run)

alias test {
var %i = 1, %t = $ctime
while (%i < 100000) {

the $iif for the first 5 tests, and the 3 if lines for the second row of 5 tests

inc %i
}
var %t2 = $ctime - %t
echo -s Time: %t2
}
