I released a new JSON encoding/decoding library that uses NIF C++ backend and consistently outperforms most of other implementations.

Fast Erlang NIF JSON encoder/decoder backed by the glaze C++ library, with a hand-rolled recursive-descent decoder and direct term-to-JSON encoder that produce/consume native Erlang terms in a single pass.

Features

  • Decoding straight to Erlang terms: maps, lists, binaries, integers (including bignums), floats, booleans, and null
  • Encoding Erlang terms straight to JSON, including big integers
  • Configurable representation of JSON null and JSON object keys
  • minify/1 and prettify/1 helpers
  • Standalone big-integer encode/decode helpers (encode_bigint/1, decode_bigint/1)
(numbers in µs)
JSON files:   twitter (616.7K)     twitter2 (758.0K)     openrtb (1.2K)      esad (1.3K)         small (0.1K)

Hi, nice work! Please check possible heap buffer overflow in decode_bigint (limbs_to_term func) with ASAN enabled. I got ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow
WRITE of size 1 for input 18446744073709551616 (2^64)

Thanks for reporting. This is fixed, and “make memcheck” sanitization is added.
