New submission from Thomas Heller <thel...@ctypes.org>: The json package is a lot slower than the simplejson package. Both packages have their C compiled speedup module; however:
C:\>py26 -m timeit -s "from json import dumps, loads" "loads(dumps(range(32)))" 1000 loops, best of 3: 618 usec per loop C:\>py26 -m timeit -s "from simplejson import dumps, loads" "loads(dumps(range(32)))" 10000 loops, best of 3: 31 usec per loop This is on Windows XP, with Python 2.6.2. ---------- messages: 87685 nosy: theller severity: normal status: open title: json slower than simplejson type: performance versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6013> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
