Based on run's output times this add only 2 sec. I agree to reduce number of iterations (may be 100) but not complete remove it.

I would not do that. First compilation of `run()` will be OSR and we will never run it fully compiled. You need several iterations in `main()` to trigger and use normal compilation. But 100 iterations should be fine. This should put execution time under 1 sec.
