Benchmark: Lodash uniqBy vs Set vs custom uniqBy

HTML Preparation code:


<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/lodash.js/4.17.5/lodash.min.js'></script>

Script Preparation code:

var MyArr = Array.from({length: 40}, () => Math.floor(Math.random() * 40));

var myCopy = null;

function uniqBy(arr, predicate) {
  const cb = typeof predicate === 'function' ? predicate : (o) => o[predicate];
  
  return [...arr.reduce((map, item) => {
    const key = (item === null || item === undefined) ? 
      item : cb(item);
    
    map.has(key) || map.set(key, item);
    
    return map;
  }, new Map()).values()];
};

Tests:

Lodash uniqBy
myCopy = _.uniqBy(MyArr);
Set
myCopy = [...new Set(MyArr)]
custom uniqBy
myCopy = uniqBy(MyArr, v => v)
