map-vs-object

Comparing the performance of JS maps and objects.

Runs both on Node.JS and Deno, to help compare the performance of maps and objects on both runtimes.
Running:

deno run index.js <amount>
node index.js <amount>

<amount> - the amount of key-value pairs

Example:

$ node index.js 1000000
