Run results for: Map() delete while iterating vs clear

When iterating over a Map and clearing after iteration is required, is it faster to remove items at each iteration step or is it faster to iterate and then clear() the entire Map afterwards?

Test name	Executions per second
Iterate + clear	6670017.0 Ops/sec
Iterate + delete	121070192.0 Ops/sec

Script Preparation code:

var dummy = 0;
var map = new Map(new Array(100).fill(null).map((_, i) => [
  function(incrementBy) {
  	dummy += incrementBy;
  },
  { incrementBy: i }
]));

Tests:

Iterate + clear
for (const [fn, obj] of map) { fn(obj.incrementBy); } map.clear();
Iterate + delete
for (const [fn, obj] of map) { fn(obj.incrementBy); map.delete(fn); }
