How can I quickly parse a huge 45MB JSON file using JsonDecoder
Not quite exactly sure what you mean but if its a .sqlite3 file then you can use it with this easy to use library https://github.com/groue/GRDB.swift

How to decide between JSON and CoreData?
Check the performance comparison page. GRDB comes with a convenient and ready-made support for Swift Codable that performs quite well. When needed, it is possible to write less convenient but optimized record types that add very little overhead to SQLite, and perform really well.
Multi-threading is precisely described in the GRDB Concurrency Guide.
Real + coredata both uses classes (and Realm even with some weird dynamic annotation before each property afaik). This means allocations and slowiness. GRDB performs pretty well: https://github.com/groue/GRDB.swift/wiki/Performance.

SwiftUI friendly, low impact alternative to CoreData?
I really like GRDB: https://github.com/groue/GRDB.swift It's incredibly well built, uses all the new and shiny Swift features and has all the things you described.

Core Data vs Realm performance analysis
Instead of either of these options, I would highly recommend checking out GRDB instead. It's a very nice SQLite wrapper that helps you avoid many of the concurrency issues affecting both Core Data and Realm: https://github.com/groue/GRDB.swift
