Update I on Update of Json-parsing performance
After writing the entry about parsing performance measurements, I got feedback leading to bit more comple test. Specifically, one of packages (json.simple) actually does offer streaming API as well. So I ended up adding one more test case. Turns out that the package in question gets some measurable boost from this (throughput +15-25%), see the full updated results. And here's the "quick pic" as well"
Also, one thing the original entry did not cover was how to interpret the results. Here's a brief summary:
- 'results' marked with 'KB' just indicate size of the parsed document (same for all parsers)
- actual results are in 'tps' (transactions per second), and "bigger is better": transaction here is a single parse through the doc and accumulation of field counts.
(and for more, you may want to check out how Japex works in general).
Hope this helps.
