const max2 = 10000000; // 10,000,000 (10 Million)

const arr2 = Array.from({ length: 10000000 }, (_, i) => Math.random() >= 0.5 ? ({ id: i }) : ({ id: Math.floor(Math.random() * 10) + 1 }))

Tests:

Lodash (_.uniqBy)
_.uniqBy(arr2, (el) => el.id)
Vanilla code
const idsAlreadySeen = new Set(); const uniqArr = arr2.filter(data => { if (idsAlreadySeen.has(data.id)) { return false; } idsAlreadySeen.add(data.id); return true; });
