RPM version uses JSON::PP instead of JSON::XS
Concerned version
Version: %2.0.3
Platform: RPM (RedHat/CentOS)
Summary
Is there a reason why JSON::XS is not installed as a dependancy in the RPM distribution?
It is installed on Debian, and is a nice performance boost when doing heavy session processing (Manager, or bad configuration of Session::Browseable), and probably a nice performance boost when serving lots of traffic too.
If JSON::PP has to be used on RedHat for compatibility reasons, perhaps it should be best to explicitely force it (PERL_JSON_BACKEND) in case an admin installs JSON::XS it for some reason?
