Fun to see someone decide to just write a faster JSON parser because they believed it was possible. They mentioned last year that libjansson had some intermediate layer with Emacs, which led to too many memory allocations: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2024-03/msg00...
Also, the developer who wrote the parser (Géza Herman) was able to pass all of the tests with strange edge cases from https://seriot.ch/projects/parsing_json.html very quickly: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2024-03/msg00...
