Hmm interesting. I tried three different approaches (array_map, for, foreach) with the following results.

Code:

Test took 7.684968 seconds to complete
Test array has 100 items
Average of 10,000 iterations, times in 1000ths of a second

array_map => 0.107439
foreach => 0.327824
for => 0.322589

Given those results, which contradict your own, it would appear that array_map is around 3 times faster than for/foreach -- for me at least.
