Script Preparation code:

var div = document.createElement('div');
for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
    div.insertAdjacentHTML('beforeend', `<span>span-${i}<span>`);
}

var list = div.querySelectorAll('span');

Tests:

for
for(let i = 0; i < list.length; i++) { list[i].setAttribute('tabindex', '-1'); }
forEach
list.forEach(item =>{ item.setAttribute('tabindex', '-1'); });
for with length caching
for(let i = 0, l=list.length; i < l; i++) { list[i].setAttribute('tabindex', '-1'); }
