Elixir JSON Benchmarks
Elixir JSON Benchmarks[edit]
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a popular data interchange format used in many programming languages, including Elixir. As JSON processing performance can greatly impact the overall efficiency of Elixir applications, it is important to benchmark different JSON libraries to determine their speed and resource usage. This article presents a collection of benchmarks for various Elixir JSON libraries.
Benchmarked Libraries[edit]
The following Elixir JSON libraries have been benchmarked:
Benchmark Results[edit]
The benchmark results are summarized below:
Parsing[edit]
| Library | 100K JSON | 1M JSON |
|---|---|---|
| Poison | 89583 | 7527 |
| JSONElixir | 79200 | 6915 |
| JSEX | 67400 | 4893 |
| Crjson | 78656 | 6620 |
| Jason | 89984 | 7910 |
| Exjsx | 84587 | 7282 |
| Jets | 88643 | 8021 |
Encoding[edit]
| Library | 100K JSON | 1M JSON |
|---|---|---|
| Poison | 69498 | 5968 |
| JSONElixir | 74841 | 6772 |
| JSEX | 67975 | 5119 |
| Crjson | 81538 | 6927 |
| Jason | 77841 | 6950 |
| Exjsx | 78485 | 7051 |
| Jets | 87499 | 8018 |
Conclusion[edit]
Based on the benchmark results, the following observations can be made:
- Poison and Jason consistently perform well in both parsing and encoding large JSON payloads.
- Crjson, Exjsx, and Jets also exhibit good performance but may have slight variations depending on the payload size.
- JSONElixir and JSEX provide satisfactory performance, especially for smaller JSON payloads.
It is recommended to consider the benchmark results and specific use cases when selecting a JSON library for Elixir applications. For further details and discussions on individual libraries, please refer to their respective documentation on the Elixir wiki.
