A Journey building a fast JSON parser and full JSONPath

  Optimized JSON for Go

I like the "Simple Encoding Notation" (SEN) of the underlying library: https://github.com/ohler55/ojg/blob/develop/sen.md

  A new way of working with JSON documents without using model classes or JSON schemas

  

Nice work! I see that that this is for processing / parsing large data sets and where documents do not conform to a fixed structure and for Go language.

I made something similar in Java - unify-jdocs - https://github.com/americanexpress/unify-jdocs - though this is not for parsing - it is more for reading and writing when the structure of the document is known - read and write any JSONPath in one line of code and use model documents to define the structure of the data document (instead of using JSONSchema which I found very unwieldy to use) - no POJOs or model classes - along with many other features. Posting here as the topic is relevant and it may help people in the Java world. We have used it intensively within Amex for a very large complex project and it has worked great for us.

  A high-performance 100% compatible drop-in replacement of "encoding/json" (by json-iterator)

  

We all know the builtin golang JSON parser is slow.

How about doing comparisons against other implementations?

Slightly tangential, but Go's JSON handling has long had room for improvement and it looks like there's going to be a serious overhaul of its capabilities and implementation: https://github.com/golang/go/discussions/63397 -- I'm looking forward to seeing this land.
