Test name	Executions per second
Reduce and Spread	37747.8 Ops/sec
ForEach and Mutate (for .. in loop)	101695.7 Ops/sec
Mutate with Object.assign	84192.1 Ops/sec
Foreach and Mutate (Object.assign)	5364.5 Ops/sec

Script Preparation code:

var objectsArray = Array(1000).fill(() => {
  const key = Math.random().toString(36).substring(2, 5);
  const value = Math.random().toString(36).substring(2, 5);
  return {[key]: value};
});

Tests:

Reduce and Spread
var combined = objectsArray.reduce((memo, obj) => ({...memo, ...obj}), {});
ForEach and Mutate (for .. in loop)
var combined = {} objectsArray.forEach(obj => { for (key in obj) { combined[key] = obj[key]; } });
Mutate with Object.assign
var combined = Object.assign(...objectsArray)
Foreach and Mutate (Object.assign)
var combined = {} objectsArray.forEach(obj => Object.assign(combined, obj));
