Test name	Executions per second
finding item using find with Object.values	658.9 Ops/sec
finding item using find without Object.values (accessing entities using the ids array)	1059.4 Ops/sec
using the itemIdByUuid "projection" we created	1145719.8 Ops/sec

Script Preparation code:

function shuffleArray(array) {
    for (let i = array.length - 1; i > 0; i--) {
        const j = Math.floor(Math.random() * (i + 1));
        [array[i], array[j]] = [array[j], array[i]];
    }
}

var ids = [];
var uuids = [];
var entities = {};
var itemIdByUuid = {};
for(let i = 0; i < 5000; i++) {
  const obj = {
    id: `id${i}`,
    uuid: crypto.randomUUID(),
    foo: "bar",
    bar: "foo",
  };
  
  entities[obj.id] = obj;
  ids.push(obj.id);
  itemIdByUuid[obj.uuid] = obj.id;
}

Tests:

finding item using find with Object.values
const randomUUID = uuids[Math.floor(Math.random() * uuids.length)]; const itemMatchingSomeUUID = Object.values(entities).find((obj) => obj.uuid === randomUUID);
finding item using find without Object.values (accessing entities using the ids array)
const randomUUID = uuids[Math.floor(Math.random() * uuids.length)]; const itemMatchingSomeUUID = ids.map((id) => entities[id]).find((obj) => obj.uuid === randomUUID);
using the itemIdByUuid "projection" we created
const randomUUID = uuids[Math.floor(Math.random() * uuids.length)]; const itemMatchingSomeUUID = entities[itemIdByUuid[randomUUID]];
