1 This gem is a C binding to the excellent YAJL JSON parsing and generation
5 * JSON parsing and encoding directly to and from an IO stream (file, socket,
6 etc) or String. Compressed stream parsing and encoding supported for Bzip2,
8 * Parse and encode multiple JSON objects to and from streams or strings
10 * JSON gem compatibility API - allows yajl-ruby to be used as a drop-in
11 replacement for the JSON gem
12 * Basic HTTP client (only GET requests supported for now) which parses JSON
13 directly off the response body *as it's being received*
14 * ~3.5x faster than JSON.generate
15 * ~1.9x faster than JSON.parse
16 * ~4.5x faster than YAML.load
17 * ~377.5x faster than YAML.dump
18 * ~1.5x faster than Marshal.load
19 * ~2x faster than Marshal.dump
