Performance of subsasgn and subsref

Hi 

I did very simple experiments in both matlab and octave. 
In octave:
octave:1>  m = rand(3000);
octave:2> tic, a=m(1:2999, 1:2999); toc
ans = 2.2935

octave:4> tic,m(2:3000, 2:3000)=a; toc
ans = 1.8978

-----------
In matlab
>> m=rand(3000);
>> tic, a=m(1:2999, 1:2999); toc

elapsed_time =

    0.5277

>> tic,m(2:3000, 2:3000)=a; toc

elapsed_time =

    0.4800


I was wondering what causes the difference in performance. 
I am using octave 2.1.57

Thanks,
Jia
