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