Benchmark: Object.create(null) vs Object literal - Creation and Iteration Performance

Tests:

Object.create
const object = Object.create(null); object.a = 1; object.b = 2; object.c = 3; object.d = 4; object.e = 5; object.f = 6; let sum = 0; for (const key in object) { sum += object[key]; }
Object literal
const object = {a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4, e: 5, f: 6}; let sum = 0; for (const key in object) { if (object.hasOwnProperty(key)) { sum += object[key]; } }
