A long and detailed test result!

It seems that the tests are comparing the performance of three different methods:

1. **Map new notation**: This method uses `map()` with an arrow function to create a new array with double values.
2. **Map old notation**: This method uses `map()` without an arrow function, which is the legacy syntax.
3. **For loop bracket notation**: This method uses a traditional `for` loop with brackets (`[]`) to iterate over the array and push double values to a new array.
4. **For loop push**: This method uses a traditional `for` loop without brackets to iterate over the array and push double values to a new array.

The test results show that:

* The **Map new notation** method is the fastest, with an average execution rate of 235,476 executions per second.
* The **Map old notation** method is slightly slower, with an average execution rate of 230,885 executions per second.
* The **For loop bracket notation** method is also slow, with an average execution rate of 229,712 executions per second.
* The **For loop push** method is the slowest, with an average execution rate of 219,590 executions per second.

It's worth noting that the performance differences between these methods are relatively small, and may not be significant in all cases. However, the results suggest that using `map()` with arrow functions (new notation) can provide a small performance boost compared to older syntax or traditional `for` loop methods.
