| 1 | Performance comparison | ||
| 2 | ---------------------- | ||
| 3 | |||
| 4 | Here is a rough performance comparision of several JSON packages | ||
| 5 | available for Lua: | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | - DKJSON 1.0: One of the fastest pure Lua JSON implementations. | ||
| 8 | - LuaJSON 1.0: A mixed Lua/C JSON implementation using LPeg. | ||
| 9 | - CSJON 1.0: Pure C. | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | The example JSON files used were taken from http://json.org/ and | ||
| 12 | RFC 4627. | ||
| 13 | |||

| 34 | |||
| 35 | |||
| 36 | CJSON spends a significant amount of time calling sprintf() to convert | ||
| 37 | doubles to strings while encoding "rfc-example1.json". Hence it only | ||
| 38 | shows a 9x improvement in this case. | ||
| 39 | |||
| 40 | The performance gains available can vary widely. If performance is | ||
| 41 | critical, I would recommend testing in a relevant environment with | ||
| 42 | your intended data. | ||
