Script Preparation code:

var data = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9];
var u8 = new Uint8Array(data);

Tests:

subarray direct
var copy = u8.subarray(10, 20);
slice direct
var copy = u8.slice(10, 20);
subarray copy
var copy = new Uint8Array(u8.subarray(10, 20));
slice copy
var copy = new Uint8Array(u8.slice(10, 20));
subarray set
var copy = new Uint8Array(10).set(u8.subarray(10, 20));
slice set
var copy = new Uint8Array(10).set(u8.slice(10, 20));
