Runtime of Foreach-Object vs Foreach loop

Question

I want to do a progress bar of my script but then I need a total amount of folders.

Is there a significant runtime difference between:

Get-ChildItem          


        

Answer 1

You can check for yourself:

Measure-Command {
    1..100000 | ForEach-Object $_
}

1.17s

Measure-Command {
    foreach ($i in (1..100000))
    {
    $i
    }
}

0.15s
