Revision 64 of this benchmark created on

Description

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

Preparation HTML

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

    for( var i=0; i < 5; i++ )
        text += possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length));

    return text;
}
</script>

Setup

var map = new Map();
    var obj = Object.create(null);
    
    var map2 = new Map();
    var obj2 = Object.create(null);
    var val = randomString();
    
    for (var i = 0; i < 10000; i++) {
      var key = i.toString();
      map2.set(key, val);
      obj2[key] = val;
    }
