The same data can be generated more quickly with Outer. That is:

In[15]:=
Outer[Times,Range@5,Range@10]==Table[i*j,{i,5},{j,10}]

Out[15]=
True

and

In[16]:=
Timing[Do[Table[i*j,{i,5},{j,10}],{10000}];]

Out[16]=
{0.947914 Second,Null}

while

In[17]:=
Timing[Do[Outer[Times,Range@5,Range@10],{10000}];]

Out[17]=
{0.451616 Second,Null}

=46or this, MapIndexed is works nicely, i.e.,

In[18]:=
Join@@MapIndexed[Outer[List,#2,#1]&,Outer[Times,Range@5,Range@
          10]]==Table[{i,#}&/@data[[i]],{i,Length[data]}]

Out[18]=
True

and

In[19]:=
Timing[Do[Join@@MapIndexed[Outer[List,#2,#1]&,data],{10000}];]

Out[19]=
{0.557445 Second,Null}
