Benchmark: cloneNode(true) vs innerHMTL - w/ Destroy DOM

Script Preparation code:

var str = `<div>${Math.random().toString().slice(2)}</div>`;
var temp = document.createElement('template')
var res = '';
for(i=0; i<30000; i++){
	res += str
}
temp.innerHTML = res;

var div = document.createElement('div')
div.innerHTML = res;

Tests:

cloneNode(true)
div.innerHTML = res; div.append(temp.content.cloneNode(true));
innerHTML
div.innerHTML = res;
