mapc is faster than mapcar, but dolist is a bit faster than mapc,
though they may change with cases.  What should be mentioned
especially is that dolist can be used without a problem also in
Emacs 20. :)

(defvar numbers-list (let ((n 0) rest)
		       (while (< n 65536)
			 (setq rest (cons n rest)
			       n (1+ n)))
		       (nreverse rest)))
(defvar numbers-sum 0)

(progn
  (setq numbers-sum 0)
  (benchmark 10
    (dolist (n numbers-list numbers-sum)
      (setq numbers-sum (+ numbers-sum n)))))
 => 0.1352449655532837


(progn
  (setq numbers-sum 0)
  (benchmark 10
    (mapc (lambda (n)
	    (setq numbers-sum (+ numbers-sum n)))
	  numbers-list)))
 => 0.1569150686264038


(progn
  (setq numbers-sum 0)
  (benchmark 10
    (mapcar (lambda (n)
	      (setq numbers-sum (+ numbers-sum n)))
	    numbers-list)))
 => 0.678508996963501
