Canvas Pixel Manipulation (v49)

Revision 49 of this benchmark created by Dan H on

Description

Tests two different methods of manipulating pixels using the canvas.

NOTE: Now takes endianness into account.

Remove needless index recalculation every iteration

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);
    
    // Determine whether Uint32 is little- or big-endian.
    data32[1] = 0x0a0b0c0d;
    
    var isLittleEndian = true;
    if (buf[4] === 0x0a && buf[5] === 0x0b && buf[6] === 0x0c && buf[7] === 0x0d) {
      isLittleEndian = false;
    }

Teardown


    ctx.putImageData(imageData, 0, 0);
