+This module implements a very fast JSON encoder/decoder for Python.
+
+JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation and is a text based lightweight
+data exchange format which is easy for humans to read/write and for machines
+to parse/generate. JSON is completely language independent and has multiple
+implementations in most of the programming languages, making it ideal for
+data exchange and storage.
+
+The module is written in C and it is up to 250 times faster when compared to
+the other python JSON implementations which are written directly in python.
+This speed gain varies with the complexity of the data and the operation and
+is the the range of 10-200 times for encoding operations and in the range of
+100-250 times for decoding operations.
