  1. rjson

    A fast json parser for go

    I then began to wonder why nobody is using Ragel to make a general json parser for go. So I wrote one thinking I would run into problems and get my answer. There were some challenges along the way, but I never ran into the kind of problems I expected. I ended up with rjson.

  3. simdjson-go

    Golang port of simdjson: parsing gigabytes of JSON per second

    You can also try comparing with https://github.com/minio/simdjson-go. It does use a different API, however, would be good to compare nevertheless.
