Newtonsoft.Json (Json.NET) has been a popular choice for .NET developers for JSON serialization and deserialization.
However, the flexibility and feature set of Newtonsoft.Json come with a performance trade-off, especially for high-throughput applications and large datasets.
In response to this, Microsoft has introduced System.Text.Json, a high-performance JSON serializer and deserializer built into the .NET runtime.
System.Text.Json is designed with performance as a priority and utilizes efficient memory management techniques to improve speed.
