ebenenglish / word-coord-json-parse-test.md
Created March 7, 2018 21:21
compares performance of parsing word-coordinate data in different JSON source formats

Overview

For each of these JSON word-coordinate file formats of the same OCR word-coordinate data, representing a single newspaper page:

  1. Open-ONI (58.9 kB)
  2. IIIF Annotation List (826.4 kB)

I ran a test in the Rails console, benchmarking the time needed to:

  1. load the source file into memory
  2. parse as JSON
  3. find nodes matching a search term ("October")
