Benchmark: Object.fromEntries vs of

Script Preparation code:

var searchParams = new URLSearchParams('abc=foo&def=%5Basf%5D&xyz=5&m1=2&m2=3&m3=4')

Tests:

Object.fromEntries
Object.fromEntries(searchParams);
Reduce (reuse object)
function paramsToObject(entries) { const result = {} for(const [key, value] of entries) { result[key] = value; } return result; } paramsToObject(searchParams)

Let's dive into the world of JavaScript microbenchmarks.

The provided JSON represents a benchmark test case on MeasureThat.net, where users can compare the performance of two different approaches to create an object from a URL search parameters.

**What is tested:**

The benchmark tests the creation of an object using two methods:

1. `Object.fromEntries()`: A built-in JavaScript method that creates an object from key-value pairs.
2. A custom implementation of creating an object from a URL search parameters, using a function called `paramsToObject()`.

**Options compared:**

Two options are being compared:

* **`Object.fromEntries()`**: The built-in JavaScript method for creating an object from key-value pairs.
* **Custom `paramsToObject()` function**: A user-defined implementation of creating an object from a URL search parameters.

**Pros and cons of each approach:**

1. **`Object.fromEntries()`**:
	* Pros:
		+ Faster execution time due to the optimized JavaScript engine's implementation.
		+ Less code to write, as it's a built-in method.
	* Cons:
		+ May not be suitable for all edge cases or complex data structures.
2. **Custom `paramsToObject()` function**:
	* Pros:
		+ More control over the object creation process.
		+ Can handle more complex data structures or custom logic.
	* Cons:
		+ Slower execution time due to the additional logic and overhead of the custom implementation.
		+ Requires more code to write.

**Library and its purpose:**

None, as there is no external library being used in this benchmark test case.

**Special JS feature or syntax:**

None mentioned, as the benchmark test cases only use standard JavaScript syntax.

Now, let's talk about other alternatives:

* **`Array.prototype.reduce()`**: Another approach to create an object from a URL search parameters. However, it would require using `Array.prototype.map()` to convert the key-value pairs into an array, which might add unnecessary overhead.
* **Using a library like Lodash or Underscore.js**: While these libraries provide useful utility functions, they are not typically used for simple object creation tasks like this benchmark test case.

In summary, the benchmark tests two approaches to create an object from a URL search parameters: `Object.fromEntries()` (built-in JavaScript method) and a custom implementation using `paramsToObject()`. The choice of approach depends on performance requirements, code complexity, and personal preference.
