Benchmarking JSON vs TOON in Go

Read Original

This technical article presents a benchmark test comparing the serialization performance of the standard Go JSON library against two TOON-format libraries (github.com/toon-format/toon-go and github.com/alpkeskin/gotoon). It includes detailed benchmark results, analysis of the speed differences, and a conclusion that TOON's readability justifies its use despite JSON's faster compact serialization, with a code example for using the recommended TOON library.
