I also expected the filter+map version to be slower, not because of the extra loop, but because of the intermediate array that needs to be created. But maybe the browser can optimize it away.

I haven't profiled it on that level, so maybe there is a difference in memory usage. I honestly don't know. Browsers have changed quite a bit over the last few years. So I wouldn't be surprised if the intermediate array has been optimized away.

It would be interesting to compare the memory profiles though.
