  • Why does Scala seem to be slow at benchmark results?

    The upickle library has traditionally had great performance for handling json in Scala apps so is likely to be seen as a safe choice for someone starting a Scala project. It appears though that not just upickle, but other json library projects are having difficulties maintaining their old level of performance when they release using Scala 3's macros. uPickle currently has an open issue where you can see some of these issues: https://github.com/com-lihaoyi/upickle/issues/389 and here you can see the weePickle folks are also having the same performance problems. Looks like things changed up significantly enough between Scala 2 and Scala 3 so that in order to maintain the same functionality they have resorted to using runtime reflection for mapping to/from case classes.
  • Updated benchmark results of JSON parsers for Scala - now with results for circe and play-json boosters based on jsoniter-scala.

    See here for sample code size numbers (not picking on upickle specifically, it's just what I'm using myself. I've heard similar reports about e.g. circe)
