Test name	Executions per second
Array.prototype.concat	2086346.1 Ops/sec
spread operator	3010321.5 Ops/sec
Push	5101280.5 Ops/sec

Script Preparation code:

var array1 = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]; 
for (var i=0;i<10;i++) array1.push(...array1);
var array2 = [...array1];
console.log('array1.length = ' + array1.length)

Tests:

Array.prototype.concat
var result = array1.concat(array2); // the 'push' test needs to do more setup. Repeat it here so it's not unfairly hindered. var pushResult = []; pushResult.push(...array1);
spread operator
var result = [...array1, ...array2]; // the 'push' test needs to do more setup. Repeat it here so it's not unfairly hindered. var pushResult = []; pushResult.push(...array1);
Push
// setup for push var pushResult = []; pushResult.push(...array1); // push test: pushResult.push(...array2);
spread operator without push setup
var result = [...array1, ...array2];
push without setup
var result = array1.push(...array2);
