The pure Python in-tree JSON parser is *much* slower than the in-tree C JSON parser. A local test parsing a 100Mb JSON file showed the Python version taking 270 seconds. With the C wrapper, it took under 4 seconds. The C extension will be used automatically if it can be built. If the extension fails to build, a warning is displayed and the build is restarted without the extension. The Serializer class is replaced with Python's built-in JSON library since the ability to process chunked data is not needed in that case. The extension should work with both Python 2.7 and Python 3.3+. Signed-off-by: Terry Wilson <twilson@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@ovn.org>
