Tests:

Array.prototype.concat

spread operator
var other = [ 1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3 ] for (var len = subarrs.length, i = 0; i < len; i++){ other = [ ...other, ...subarrs[i] ] } return other;
Push Spread
var other = [ 1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3 ] for (var len = subarrs.length, i = 0; i < len; i++){ other.push(...subarrs[i]); } return other;
Push Apply
var other = [ 1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3 ] for (var len = subarrs.length, i = 0; i < len; i++){ other.push.apply(other, subarrs[i]); } return other;
Push Loop
var other = [ 1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3,1, 2, 3 ] for (var len = subarrs.length, i = 0; i < len; i++){ for (var jarr = subarrs[i], jen = jarr.length, j = 0; j < jen; j++){ other.push(jarr[j]); } } return other;
