我一直在测试json, simplejson和cjson。

json是最快的 Simplejson几乎等同于cjson Json比simplejson慢10倍

内置json模块被包含在Python 2.6中。任何支持Python < 2.6版本的项目都需要有一个备份。在很多情况下，这种退路很简单。

一些值在simplejson和json之间的序列化方式不同。

值得注意的是，collections.namedtuple的实例被json序列化为数组，而被simplejson序列化为对象。您可以通过将namedtuple_as_object=False传递给simplejson来覆盖此行为。转储，但默认情况下行为不匹配。

>>> import collections, simplejson, json
>>> TupleClass = collections.namedtuple("TupleClass", ("a", "b"))
>>> value = TupleClass(1, 2)
>>> json.dumps(value)
'[1, 2]'
>>> simplejson.dumps(value)
'{"a": 1, "b": 2}'
>>> simplejson.dumps(value, namedtuple_as_object=False)
'[1, 2]'

在python3中，如果你有一个b'bytes'的字符串，使用json你必须在加载它之前解码()内容。Simplejson会处理这个问题，所以你可以只做Simplejson .loads(byte_string)。

Json是simplejson，添加到stdlib中。但由于json是在2.6中添加的，因此simplejson具有在更多Python版本(2.4+)上工作的优势。

simplejson的更新频率也高于Python，因此如果您需要(或想要)最新版本，最好尽可能使用simplejson本身。

在我看来，一个好的做法是使用其中一种作为后备。

    import simplejson as json
