HTML Preparation code:

<canvas id="c" width="800" height="300"></canvas>

Script Preparation code:

$c = document.getElementById('c');
$ctx = $c.getContext('2d');
$ctx.clearRect(0, 0, 800, 300);
$px = $ctx.createImageData(1, 1);
$pxls = [];
for (var i=0; i<10000; ++i) $pxls.push({
   x: Math.random() * 800 << 0,
   y: Math.random() * 300 << 0,
   r: Math.random() * 255 << 0,
   g: Math.random() * 255 << 0,
   b: Math.random() * 255 << 0,
   a: Math.random() * 128 << 0 + 128
});
$i = 0;

Tests:

fillRect
for (var i=500;i--;){ var px = $pxls[$i++ % 10000]; $ctx.fillStyle = 'rgba(' + px.r + ',' + px.g + ',' + px.b + ',' + (px.a / 255) + ')'; $ctx.fillRect(px.x, px.y, 1, 1); }
putImage
var image = $ctx.createImageData($c.width, $c.height); for (var i=500;i--;){ var px=$pxls[$i++ % 10000], d=$px.data; var _pidx = i * 4; image.data[_pidx] = px.r; image.data[_pidx+1] = px.g; image.data[_pidx+2] = px.b; image.data[_pidx+3] = px.a; } $ctx.putImageData(image, 0, 0);
