Revision 11 of this benchmark created by Goktug on

Description

Compare native Map implementation vs using an object as a hash map.

Preparation HTML

<script>
function randomString()
{
    var text = "";
    var possible = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";

    var textLength = Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length);
    for( var i=0; i < textLength; i++)
        text += possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length));

    return text;
}
</script>

Setup

var map = new Map();
    var obj = {};
    
    var map2 = new Map();
    var map3 = new Map();
    var map4 = new Map();
    var map5 = new Map();
    var obj2 = {};
    
    for (var i=0; i < 1000; i++) {
       var key = randomString();
       var val = randomString();
       map2.set(key,val);
       map3.set(key,val);
       map4.set(key,val);
       map5.set(key,val);
       obj2[key] = val;
    }
