I've been doing some other work related to json parsing and John
referred me to this. But it's actually not the best test for pure json
parsing - casting to jsonb involves some extra work besides pure
parsing. Instead I've been using this query with the same table, which
should be almost all json parsing:
select 1 from json_as_text where t::json is null;
