This thread and [1] thread are kind of interleaved, I chose this thread
to share the numbers because I think this feature should be committed
first and then adapt the *copy to json* as a contrib module.
Committers on this thread seem worried about the performance
drawback, so what I tried to do is that *if 2 is slightly worse than 1,
but better than 3*, then we can commit 2 first, but I did not get
the expected number.
