Benchmark: for loop vs array map

Tests:

for loop
const numbers = Array(100000).fill(0); for (let i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) { numbers[i] = i; } const doubled = Array(numbers.length).fill(null); for (let i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) { doubled[i] = numbers[i] * 2; }
Array.prototype.map
const numbers = Array(100000).fill(0); for (let i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) { numbers[i] = i; } const doubled = numbers.map((x) => x * 2);
for loop using a sparse array
const numbers = Array(100000).fill(0); for (let i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) { numbers[i] = i; } const doubled = Array(numbers.length); for (let i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) { doubled[i] = numbers[i] * 2; }
