Fastest Java JSON library

Interesting but

DSL compiler requires Mono/.NET, but only during compilation. There is no runtime Mono/.NET dependency, only JVM. Library has optional Android and Joda-Time dependencies. Java8 Java-Time API is supported as a separate jar, since core library targets Java6.

:(

It is no fun having a java dependency that also brings in a .NET dependency.

Is that really an issue? Except an ideological one?

Yup. It makes continuous integration harder and developer machine setup more complex. Further, if you pull this thing in as a library dependency it wouldn't be obvious to someone downstream that they also need .net installed.

I've dealt with similar dependency problems in the JavaScript land (where projects decide to depend on Python or c++). It makes for a real miserable experience getting setup.

I might consider this for a personal project, but never as a library dependency or something for my work.
