    Hi all,

    I’m curious what list verbs take advantage of the Grouped attribute. Running `group` on a list with the attribute is extremely fast which is cool but, for instance, `where` on a list is the same speed though I’d expect a speedup there too.

    You’ll find the attributes are used much more often during select queries:


    q)n:200100
    q)t:([] a:`g#n?1000; b:n?1000)
    q)\t:10000 t[`a]=1
    4650
    q)\t:10000 select from t where a=1
    21
    q)\t:10000 select from t where b=1
