Yes, as an afterthought it would have been better to build two arrays
for example (1..5000).to_a and (3000..8000).to_a and randomize them.

I totally brainfarted !!! The reviewed version, with surprising
results, at least for me: Set#- is less efficient than Array#- (unless
I'm doing something wrong again):

require 'benchmark'
require 'set'

n = 1_000

a1 = (1..5_000).sort_by { rand }
a2 = (3_000..8_000).sort_by { rand }
s1 = a1.to_set
s2 = a2.to_set

Benchmark.bmbm do |x|
    x.report("array minus") do
      n.times {a1 - a2}
    end
    x.report("set minus") do
      n.times {s1 - s2}
    end
end


$ ruby set_bm.rb
Rehearsal -----------------------------------------------
array minus   1.370000   0.010000   1.380000 (  1.398643)
set minus    10.880000   3.060000  13.940000 ( 14.100127)
------------------------------------- total: 15.320000sec

                  user     system      total        real
array minus   1.410000   0.010000   1.420000 (  1.428664)
set minus    10.990000   3.070000  14.060000 ( 14.188415)

Could it be because Array is written in C, while Set is in Ruby
iterating over an Enumerable object? Did I do something wrong again?

Jesus.
