This document presents a detailed performance analysis of different JSON serialization libraries used in the Tasker API.
Just use benchmarking branch to do your own test.
JBuilder:
- rspec spec/requests/tasks_benchmark_spec.rb
Active Model Serializers:
- rspec spec/requests/v2/tasks_benchmark_spec.rb
Grape:
- rspec spec/requests/v2/tasks_benchmark_spec.rb
Grape + Active Model Serializers:
- rspec spec/requests/v3/tasks_benchmark_spec.rb

- Grape shows the best performance in most GET operations, especially for single tasks and complex queries with associations.
- JBuilder performs best for bulk GET operations with 100 tasks.
- Grape + AMS shows competitive performance in POST operations, particularly for single task creation.
- AMS demonstrates consistent performance across all operations but doesn't lead in any specific category.
