Fair, but agentic tooling can benefit quite a lot from this Opencode, ClaudeCode, etc, feel slow. Whatever make them faster is a win :)

  It's not running jq locally that's causing that

  The 2ms it takes to run jq versus the 0.2ms to run an alternative is not why your coding agent feels slow.

    Still, jq is run a whole lot more than it used to be due to coding agents, so every bit helps. The vast majority of Linux kernel performance improvement patches probably have way less of a real world impact than this.

      > The vast majority of Linux kernel performance improvement patches probably have way less of a real world impact than this. unlikely given that the number they are multiplying by every improvement is far higher than "times jq is run in some pipeline". Even 0.1% improvement in kernel is probably far far higher impact than this

        Jq is run a ton by AIs, and that is only increasing.

          I can't take seriously any talk about performance if the tools are going to shell out. It's just not a bottleneck.
