object.keys vs for-in (v4)

Revision 4 of this benchmark created on

Setup

const ALPHABET = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";

function randomString(length) {
  const out = [];
  for (let i = 0; i < length; i++) {
    const randomChar = ALPHABET[Math.floor(Math.random() * ALPHABET.length)];
    out.push(randomChar);
  }
  return out.join("");
}

function randomObject(size) {
  const out = {};
  for (let i = 0; i < size; i++) {
  	out[randomString(10)] = Math.random();
  }
  return out;
}

const data = randomObject(10_000);
