Benchmark: Fastest way to check if an object with potentially lots of data is empty

HTML Preparation code:


<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/lodash.js/4.17.5/lodash.min.js'></script>

Script Preparation code:

const arr = [];

for(i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
{
    arr.push([`key_${i}`, `val_${i}`]);
}

var obj = Object.fromEntries(arr);

var isObjectEmpty = (objectName) => {
  for (let prop in objectName) {
    if (objectName.hasOwnProperty(prop)) {
      return false;
    }
  }
  return true;
};

Tests:

object.keys()
Object.keys(obj) === 0
JSON.stringify()
JSON.stringify(obj) === "{}"
_.isEmpty()
_.isEmpty(obj) === true
for ... in
isObjectEmpty(obj) === true

You don't need to make add for loops in your test scenarios, the benchmark does it itself.
