Benchmark: arguments.callee vs new.target vs function name vs variable

Script Preparation code:

function first(){return arguments.callee}
function second(){return new.target}
function third(){return third}
let fourth = function(){return fourth}

Tests:

arguments.callee
for(let i = 3000; --i;)new first
new.target
for(let i = 3000; --i;)new second
function name
for(let i = 3000; --i;)new third
variable
for(let i = 3000; --i;)new fourth
