FAQ

 How does this module compare to other JSON modules on CPAN?

    As of version 0.04, performance-wise this module quite on par with
    JSON::PP (faster on strings and longer arrays/objects, slower on
    simpler JSON) and a bit slower than JSON::Tiny. And of course all three
    are much slower than XS-based modules like JSON::XS.

    JSON::Decode::Regexp does not yet support Unicode, and does not
    pinpoint exact location on parse error.

    In general, I don't see a point in using it in production (I recommend
    instead JSON::XS or Cpanel::JSON::XS if you can use XS modules, or
    JSON::Tiny if you must use pure Perl modules). But it is a cool hack
    that demonstrates the power of Perl regular expressions and beautiful
    code.
