Script Preparation code:

var items = Array.from(Array(1000), (_,x) => x + '');

var objContainer = {};
var arrContainer = [];

for (let i = 100; i >= 0; i--) {
  const index = Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000) + '';
  const item = items[index];
  objContainer[item] = item;
  arrContainer.push(item)
}

Tests:

Object access
items.forEach(item => objContainer[item])
Array find
items.forEach(item => arrContainer[arrContainer.indexOf(item)])
