Benchmark: stringify+contains vs values+some

Script Preparation code:

var obj = {}
for (let index = 0; index < 1000; index++) {
    obj['attr' + index] = 'value' + index
}
obj['attr' + (Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000))] = null;

Tests:

json + contains
let stringa = JSON.stringify(obj); stringa.includes('null')
values + some
let vettore =Object.values(obj); vettore.some(o => o == null);

Let's break down the provided benchmark definition and test cases to understand what's being tested.

**Benchmark Definition**

The benchmark measures the performance difference between two approaches:

1. `JSON.stringify(obj)` followed by the `includes()` method, which checks if a specific value exists within the stringified object.
2. `Object.values(obj)` followed by the `some()` method, which checks if any element in the values array is null.

**Options Compared**

The benchmark compares the performance of these two approaches:

* `JSON.stringify(obj)`: This method converts the object into a JSON string, which can be useful for various purposes like data storage or sending over a network.
* `Object.values(obj)`: This method returns an array containing the values of all enumerable properties in the object. The `some()` method is then applied to this array to check if any value is null.

**Pros and Cons**

1. **JSON.stringify(obj)**:
	* Pros: Easy to implement, widely supported.
	* Cons:
		+ Creates a new string, which can be memory-intensive for large objects.
		+ May not perform well on very large objects due to the overhead of creating the JSON string.
2. **Object.values(obj) + some()**:
	* Pros: More efficient in terms of memory usage and potentially faster execution times for large objects.
	* Cons:
		+ Requires support for modern JavaScript features (ECMAScript 2015+).
		+ May not be as straightforward to implement or understand compared to `JSON.stringify()`.

**Library Usage**

The test case uses the `Object.values()` method, which is a part of the ECMAScript standard since ES6. This method returns an array containing the values of all enumerable properties in the object. The `some()` method is also supported in modern browsers and Node.js environments.

**Special JS Feature/Syntax**

The benchmark does not use any special JavaScript features or syntax beyond what's required for the test cases (ES6+). If you were to modify the benchmark to include more advanced features, it might involve using:

* `Map` instead of objects for storing values.
* Advanced string manipulation techniques.
* Custom function implementations.

However, these changes are not relevant to the current benchmark definition and test cases.

**Other Alternatives**

Some alternative approaches could be considered for this benchmark:

1. Using a different data structure, such as an array or a set, instead of objects.
2. Implementing custom string manipulation functions instead of relying on `JSON.stringify()` and `includes()`.
3. Comparing performance with other languages or libraries (e.g., Python, C++, or third-party JavaScript libraries).

Keep in mind that the benchmark's purpose is to compare the performance of two specific approaches, so alternative approaches might not be relevant or meaningful for this particular test case.
