Script Preparation code:

function* iterator(size) {
 	for (let i = 0; i < size; i++) {
      yield i;
    }
}

function callback(size, cb) {
  for (let i = 0; i < size; i++) {
    cb(i);
  }
}

var N = 100000;

Tests:

iterator
let sum = 0; for (const i of iterator(N)) { sum += i*Math.random(); }
callback
let sum = 0; callback(N, i => { sum += i*Math.random(); });
