  1. JSON Performance Comparison under Lua
    2. 

  2. -------------------------------------
    3. 

  3. 

  4. The following JSON packages for Lua were tested:
    5. 

  5. 

  6. - DKJSON 1.0: One of the fastest pure Lua JSON implementations.
    7. 

  7. - LuaJSON 1.0: A mixed Lua/C JSON implementation using LPeg.
    8. 

  8. - Lua YAJL 2.0: A Lua wrapper for the YAJL JSON library.
    9. 

  9. - CSJON 1.0.2: Pure C.
    10. 

  10. 

  11. LuaJSON 1.2.2 appeared to be slower during initial testing, so 1.0 was
    12. 

  12. used instead.
    13. 

  13. 

  14. The following Lua implementations were used for this comparison:
    15. 

  15. - Lua 5.1.4
    16. 

  16. - LuaJIT 2.0.0-beta7
    17. 

  17. 

  18. The example JSON files used were taken from http://json.org/ and
    19. 

  19. RFC 4627.

  47. Number conversion is a relatively expensive operation. Number heavy
    48. 

  48. JSON will show less performance difference between libraries.

  50. Performance can vary widely between platforms and data sets. These

  51. results should only be considered as a rough guide.
