HTML Preparation code:

<!--your preparation HTML code goes here-->

Script Preparation code:

const toSearch = [];
for (let index = 0; index < 5000; index++) {
    toSearch.push({
        x: Math.random(),
        y: Math.random()
    });
}
toSearch.push({
        x: 1,
        y: 1
    });

Tests:

Loop
let max = 0; for (let i = 0; i < toSearch.length; i++) { if (toSearch[i].x > max) { max = toSearch[i].x; } }
Math.max.apply
let max = Math.max.apply(null, toSearch.map(function (o) { return o.x; }));
Reduce
let max = toSearch.reduce((acc, value) => { return (acc = acc > value.x ? acc : value.x); }, 0);
Sort
toSearch.sort((one, two) => two.x - one.x); let max = toSearch[0].x;
