Benchmark: Lodash Pick vs Native destructuring vs Manual Picks3

Script Preparation code:

var pick = (obj, keys) => {
    return keys
        .filter((key) => key in obj)
        .reduce((res, key) => ({
            ...res,
            [key]: obj[key]
        }), {});
};

var arr = [];
var object = {
    type: 'aaa',
    subtype: 'bbb',
    card_last4: 'bbb',
    card_type: 'bbb',
    card_exp_month: 'bbb',
    card_exp_year: 'bbb',
    card_country: 'bbb',
    foo: 'bar'
};
for (var i = 0; i <= 100000; i++) {
    arr.push(object);
}

Tests:

Lodash
arr.map(function (element) { return _.pick( element, 'type', 'subtype', 'card_last4', 'card_type', 'card_exp_month', 'card_exp_year', 'card_country', 'something' ); });
Native
arr.map(function (element) { const { type, subtype, card_last4, card_type, card_exp_month, card_exp_year, card_country, something } = element; return { type, subtype, card_last4, card_type, card_exp_month, card_exp_year, card_country, something }; });
Manual pick with property names
const props = [ "type", "subtype", "card_last4", "card_type", "card_exp_month", "card_exp_year", "card_country", "something" ]; arr.map(function (element) { const res = {}; for(let prop of props){ res[prop] = element[prop] } return res; });
Manual pick
arr.map(function (element) { return { type: element.type, subtype: element.subtype, card_last4: element.card_last4, card_type: element.card_type, card_exp_month: element.card_exp_month, card_exp_year: element.card_exp_year, card_country: element.card_country, something: element.something }; });
Filter
const props = [ "type", "subtype", "card_last4", "card_type", "card_exp_month", "card_exp_year", "card_country", "something" ]; arr.map(function (element) { return pick(element,props) });

Let's break down the benchmark and its various test cases.

**Benchmark Overview**

The benchmark is designed to compare three approaches for extracting specific properties from an object:

1. **Lodash**: Using the `_.pick` function, which takes an object and a list of keys as arguments, returning a new object with only the specified keys.
2. **Native destructuring**: Using the syntax `[propName] in obj` to extract properties from the object, then using the `const { ... } = element;` syntax to destructure the extracted properties into a new object.
3. **Manual pick with property names**: Using the `for...of` loop and iterating over an array of property names to access the corresponding values in the object.
4. **Manual pick**: Similar to manual pick with property names, but without specifying the exact property names.

**Options Compared**

The benchmark compares these four approaches for extracting specific properties from an object:

* Lodash (`_.pick`)
* Native destructuring
* Manual pick with property names
* Manual pick

**Pros and Cons of Each Approach:**

1. **Lodash (`_.pick`)**:
	* Pros:
		+ Efficient, as it uses a built-in function optimized for performance.
		+ Easy to use, as it requires minimal code changes.
	* Cons:
		+ External dependency on the Lodash library.
		+ May not be suitable for very large datasets or complex objects.
2. **Native destructuring**:
	* Pros:
		+ No external dependencies required.
		+ Efficient, as it uses built-in JavaScript features.
	* Cons:
		+ Requires understanding of modern JavaScript syntax and destructuring.
		+ May not be suitable for very large datasets or complex objects.
3. **Manual pick with property names**:
	* Pros:
		+ No external dependencies required.
		+ Easy to understand, as it uses a familiar `for...of` loop syntax.
	* Cons:
		+ Less efficient than the other approaches, due to the manual iteration over properties.
4. **Manual pick**:
	* Similar pros and cons to manual pick with property names.

**Benchmark Results**

The latest benchmark results show that:

1. Native destructuring is the fastest approach, with an average of 43.77 executions per second.
2. Manual pick with property names is slightly slower than native destructuring, but still relatively fast (43.77 vs 40.49 executions/second).
3. Lodash (`_.pick`) is slower than both native destructuring and manual pick with property names, but still faster than manual pick.

**Device Platform and Browser**

The benchmark results are based on data from a Chrome 107 browser on a Mac OS X 10.15.7 device platform. The results may vary depending on the specific hardware and software configuration used to run the benchmark.

I hope this explanation helps clarify the benchmark and its various test cases!
