Canvas Pixel Manipulation (v10)

Revision 10 of this benchmark created by PlayMyCode on

Preparation HTML

<canvas id="canvas" height="256" width="256"></canvas>

Setup

var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
  var canvasWidth  = canvas.width;
  var canvasHeight = canvas.height;
  var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
  var imageData = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, canvasWidth, canvasHeight);
  
  var data = imageData.data;
  
  
  var buf = new ArrayBuffer(imageData.data.length);
  var buf8 = new Uint8ClampedArray(buf);
  var data32 = new Uint32Array(buf);
  
  var pixels = new Int32Array( imageData.data.buffer );

Teardown



            ctx.putImageData(imageData, 0, 0);
