Benchmark: lookup table vs switch

Tests:

lookup
const SOURCE = [ 'hello', 'hi', 'bye', 'die', 'die', 'bye', 'hi', 'hello', 'hello', 'hi', 'bye', 'die', 'die', 'bye', 'hi', 'hello', 'hello', 'hi', 'bye', 'die', 'die', 'bye', 'hi', 'hello', 'hello', 'hi', 'bye', 'die', 'die', 'bye', 'hi', 'hello', 'hello', 'hi', 'bye', 'die', 'die', 'bye', 'hi', 'hello', 'hello', 'hi', 'bye', 'die', 'die', 'bye', 'hi', 'hello', 'hello', 'hi', 'bye', 'die', 'die', 'bye', 'hi', 'hello', 'hello', 'hi', 'bye', 'die', 'die', 'bye', 'hi', 'hello', ]; let a; var LOOKUP = { "ahello": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "hi"); }, "ahi": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "hello"); }, "abye": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "no"); }, "adie": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "you shot me"); }, "bhello": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "hi"); }, "bhi": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "hello"); }, "bbye": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "no"); }, "bdie": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "you shot me"); }, "hello": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "hi"); }, "hi": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "hello"); }, "bye": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "no"); }, "die": function(v) { a = (v + "\n\n" + "you shot me"); }, }; for(let value of SOURCE){ LOOKUP[value](value)}
