Maybe not. This bug report:
https://github.com/abingham/emacs-ycmd/issues/163 mentioned large
translation units, but I'm not sure which exact sizes are in play. The
reproduction scenario used a 300 KB example, encoding which was quite
slow at the time.

If you mean I/O in general, maybe. I'm not sure which encoding speeds
json.c allows us now.
But the JSON structure I was talking about is not written to a file.
It's sent over the network (usually to a local TCP socket).
