Copy List Of String to another List Of String

'1 NewList.AddRange(ResumeFailed)
NewList.AddRange(ResumeFailed)

'2 NewList.AddRange(ResumeFailed.ToList)   
Dim list As List(Of String) = ResumeFailed.ToList() ' System.Linq Extension Methods
NewList.AddRange(list)

'3 NewList.AddRange(ResumeFailed.ToArray)
Dim array As String() = ResumeFailed.ToArray()      ' List<T>.ToArray
NewList.AddRange(array)

The fastest are 1, 3, and 2. But the fastest one is:

'4 new NewList(ResumeFailed)
Dim NewList As New List(Of String)(ResumeFailed)

This is a sample to measure performance.Please try running it.
