I don’t think the lesson here is “be careful when parsing json” so much as it’s “stop writing quadratic code.” The json quadratic algorithm was subtle. But if it was a CPU bottleneck then who works there that wouldn't just be irked to try to nail it? I mean it seems like a natural thing to try to understand what's going on inside when time is much higher than expected even in the case where performance is not crucial. But how could R* not do this? GTAV is so full of great engineering. Stunning work just having binary at hand. If this is true that's the biggest WTF I saw in the last few years and we've just finished 2020. Parsing JSON?! I thought it was some network game logic finding session magic. Then there are man-years wasted (in a way different than desired). I'm certain that many people left this game because of the waiting time. Holy cow, I'm a very casual gamer, I was excited about the game but when it came out I decided I don't want to wait that long and I'll wait until they sort it out.
