Benchmark: toString vs Stringify vs backticks

Script Preparation code:

function moreData(arr, left) {
  if(left === 0) return arr;
  else {
    arr.push(Math.floor(Math.random() * 256));
  	return moreData(arr, left - 1);
  }
}
function makeTestData() { return moreData([], 4); }

Tests:

toString
makeTestData().toString()
stringify
JSON.stringify(makeTestData());
backticks
`${Object.values(makeTestData())}`
String()
String(makeTestData())
