Script Preparation code:

var a = [...Array(20000)].map((x, i) => i);
var i = 0;

Tests:

lastIndexOf (near end)
var n = a.lastIndexOf(19000 + (i++ % 1000));
indexOf (near end)
var n = a.indexOf(19000 + (i++ % 1000));
lastIndexOf (near head)
var n = a.lastIndexOf(0 + (i++ % 1000));
indexOf (near head)
var n = a.indexOf(0 + (i++ % 1000));
