Good afternoon Mr Douglas Crockford,
I wonder if you have seen already my latest JSON related project, called
JSON.hpack,
an Homogeneous Collection Packer.
As summary, hpack transform a JSON list of objects, usually a database
resultSet
[{name:value},{name:value},{name:value}]
into an array only collection with columns info in the special index 0
[[name],[value],[value],[value]]
With 4 different compression levels, it is able to cut down number of
characters from 75Kb to 9Kb ( no gzip ) and to make big client side
elaborated resultSets send via Ajax possible without having gzip/deflate
compression on client side. The JSON.hunpack method is extremely fast and
compatible with every chosed compression level.
I hope it will find a place into json.org and I'd love to read a comment
about it as soon as you have some free minute (... even if I know it is
something hard to find in IT).
