So for a particular CGI perl script I have included JSON like this to handle some .json files:
use lib "./modules/JSON/lib";
use JSON;
This works fine and well. The web directory holds the files required in the modules folder.
However, the JSON module is very slow. I read that JSON:XS can be much, much faster but I can't seem to simply use it as so:
use lib "./modules/JSON-XS";
use JSON::XS;
There is no lib folder in the JSON-XS files, i've tried combinations of use (ie, using both folders and etc) but it didn't work.
And no I cannot simply install the module for this particular project.
Any help is appreciated.
