Performance improvement

[veksa]

Based on the benchmark, the "for in" loop appears to be 10% slower than the "for" loop. Does it make sense to replace all instances of "for in"?

If we want to microbenchmark we could also do the even more performant version of your very simple test:

var sum = 0;
for (var v of Object.values(object)) {

}

But this has perhaps too bad browser support (no IE, no edge 12-13, no browser before 2016/2017): https://caniuse.com/object-values

I updated the benchmark at https://jsben.ch/IWqVX. Object.values performs significantly better, and to support incompatible browsers, we can write a polyfill function.
