Script Preparation code:

var size = 0xFFFF;
var data = new Float32Array(size);
var floatArray = new Float32Array(size);
var dataView = new DataView(new ArrayBuffer(size * 4));

for (let i = 0; i < size; i++) {
	data[i] = 100*Math.random();
	floatArray[i] = 100*Math.random();
	dataView[i] = 100*Math.random();
}

Tests:

DataView
for (let i; i < size; i++) { dataView.setFloat32(i * 4, data[i]); } return dataView.getFloat32(i * size - 16)
Float32Array
for (let i; i < size; i++) { floatArray[i] = data[i]; } return floatArray[size - 4]
