Thanks Bert. That is also the case on my laptop (Intel Celeron). Totally
different than on my main machine (AMD Athlon) on which the "count up" is
very much faster than the "count down". What processor does your HP use?

When comparing the count up vs down it might be best to end at a number
above zero. Otherwise we're testing 2 things at once - speed of for loop
counting to zero and speed of memory access counting backwards. If there's
any speed difference we can't know which to attribute it to.
