Our dev dept is looking into using JSON for a mobile, cross-platform, data exchange format that can be used in both mobile web and native application. I have been using XML to satisfy this requirement for nearly a decade but the extra markup needed for well-formed may be too much for larger data sets especially streamed over slow wireless networks to mobile devices. I’m looking at speed/performance criteria and compactness for streamed data. I’ve written a thousand delimited data parsers before and I’ve heard of JSON and prefer to use standards. This may be the way to go. Any comments are appreciated. I’m looking for the fastest C#, C or C++ implementation.
