HTML Preparation code:

<canvas id='aa' width='320' height='180'></canvas>

var cc = document.getElementById('cc').getContext('2d');
var dd = document.getElementById('dd').getContext('2d');

var pixels = new Uint8ClampedArray(320 * 180 * 4);
var imgdata = new ImageData(pixels, 320, 180);

Tests:

putImageData two loops
for (var y = 0; y < 180; y++) { for (var x = 0; x < 320; x++) { var i = y * 180 * 4 + x * 4; pixels[i + 0] = 0; pixels[i + 1] = 0; pixels[i + 2] = 0; pixels[i + 3] = 0; } } aa.putImageData(imgdata, 0, 0);
fillRect
bb.fillStyle = `#0000`; bb.fillRect(0, 0, 320, 180);
clearRect
bb.clearRect(0, 0, 320, 180);
putImageData one loop
for (var i = 0; i < 180 * 320 * 4; i++) pixels[i]=0; dd.putImageData(imgdata, 0, 0);
