Script Preparation code:

function generateTestArray() {
  const result = [];
  for (let i = 0; i < 1000000; ++i) {
    result.push({
      a: i,
      b: i / 2,
      r: 0,
    });
  }
  return result;
}

const array = generateTestArray();

Tests:

for
for (let i = 0; i < array.length; i++) { array[i].r = array[i].a + array[i].b; }
foreach
sum = x => x.r = x.a + x.b; array.forEach(sum);
for..of with reassign
for (let x of array) { x.r = x.a + x.b; }
for..of with no reassign
const result = []; for (let x of array) { result.push(x.a + x.b); }
