Let's break down the provided benchmarking scenario.

**Benchmark Definition JSON**

The provided JSON represents a benchmark definition, which includes:

1. **Script Preparation Code**: This code sets up an object `MyObject` with various properties, including arrays and nested objects. It also defines a `deepCopy` function.
2. **Html Preparation Code**: These scripts load external libraries:
	* jQuery
	* Lodash (a utility library)
	* AngularJS

**Individual Test Cases**

Each test case consists of a single line of code that creates a copy of the `MyObject`. The tests compare different approaches:

1. **`myCopy = _.cloneDeep(MyObject);`**: Uses Lodash's `cloneDeep` function to create a deep copy of `MyObject`.
2. **`myCopy = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(MyObject));`**: Uses JSON parsing and stringification to create a deep copy of `MyObject`. This approach is not recommended, as it can lead to issues with circular references.
3. **`myCopy = deepCopy(MyObject);`**: Defines the custom `deepCopy` function (see Script Preparation Code) to create a deep copy of `MyObject`.
4. **`myCopy = angular.copy(MyObject);`**: Uses AngularJS's `copy` function to create a shallow copy of `MyObject`. Note that this is not suitable for creating a deep copy.
5. **`myCopy = infoDeepCopyWithNullCheck(MyObject);`**: Uses a custom function (not shown in the provided code) to create a deep copy of `MyObject`.

**Pros and Cons**

Here's a brief overview of each approach:

1. **Lodash (`_.cloneDeep`)**
	* Pros: Efficient, widely supported, and easy to use.
	* Cons: May not be suitable for very large objects due to memory limitations.
2. **JSON parsing (`JSON.parse(JSON.stringify())`)**:
	* Pros: Simple and widely supported.
	* Cons: Can lead to issues with circular references, may not work as expected in all browsers.
3. **Custom `deepCopy` function**
	* Pros: Tailored for specific use cases, efficient, and controlled.
	* Cons: Requires custom implementation and debugging expertise.
4. **AngularJS (`angular.copy`)**
	* Pros: Simple to implement, widely supported.
	* Cons: Only suitable for shallow copies; not ideal for deep copies.
5. **`infoDeepCopyWithNullCheck` function**
	* Pros: Customizable, efficient (as per implementation).
	* Cons: Requires custom implementation and debugging expertise.

**Other Considerations**

When choosing a copy function, consider the following:

* **Object size**: For very large objects, more lightweight approaches like Lodash's `cloneDeep` or a custom `deepCopy` function might be necessary to avoid memory issues.
* **Browser support**: Ensure the chosen approach is supported by the target browsers.
* **Performance**: Compare performance metrics for different approaches to determine the most efficient solution.

**Alternatives**

Some alternative copy functions you might consider include:

* **ES6 spread operator (`{...obj}`)**: Creates a shallow copy of an object, not suitable for deep copies.
* **`Object.assign()`**: Creates a shallow copy of an object, not suitable for deep copies.
* **`Array.prototype.slice()`**: Creates a shallow copy of an array, not suitable for deep copies.

Keep in mind that the choice of copy function ultimately depends on your specific use case and requirements.
