Benchmark: Array forEach callback function as a parameter vs as a predefined variable + compared to using callback parameters vs without + for..of, for..in, for loop

Array forEach callback function as a parameter vs as a predefined variable + compared to using callback parameters vs without + for..of, for..in, for loop (version: 1)

Script Preparation code:

var array = new Array(100);

var fn = function(el, idx, arr) {
  el;
}

Tests:

Array forEach, callback function provided as an argument, ignoring most callback arguments
array.forEach(function(_el, idx, _arr) { array[idx]; });
Array forEach, callback function provided as an argument
array.forEach(function(el, idx, arr) { el; });
Array forEach, callback function provided as a predefined variable
array.forEach(fn);
for..of
for (const i of array) { array[i]; }
for..in
for (var i in array) { array[i]; }
for loop
for (var i = 0; i < array.length; i++) { array[i]; }
