Benchmark: Regex vs String comparison

Tests:

Using string comparison
const contentType = 'application/json'; const match = contentType === 'application/json' || contentType === 'application/json; charset=utf-8'; console.log(match);
Using regex
const RE_CONTENT_TYPE_JSON = new RegExp('^application/json(; charset=utf-8)?$', 'i'); const contentType = 'application/json'; const match = RE_CONTENT_TYPE_JSON.test(contentType); console.log(match);
Using array includes
const contentType = 'application/json'; const match = ['application/json', 'application/json; charset=utf-8'].includes(contentType); console.log(match);
