You're welcome, but there is no need to install the timeit module, it is 
part of the standard library that is pre-installed with every Python 
since version 2.3 (about eleven years ago).

I don’t use Pygame, but it seems to me the answer is likely to depend on what

Why don't you time it and find out? Don't forget to come back and report 
what you discover, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to know 
the answer to the question.

In Pygame Which is faster?

1. filling the screen with a colour
 or
2. blitting an image to screen


My guess is blitting, but it is only a guess.
You'd be much better off asking the pygame community on
the pygame forum/list
