Fresh install of RT-4.0.6 which JSON to use

Hi all,
I am building a new install of RT-4.0.6
while going through the perl modules needed I get a choice when selecting
a version of JSON.
here is the message from the command
perl -MCPAN -e ‘install JSON’

CPAN.pm: Going to build M/MA/MAKAMAKA/JSON-2.53.tar.gz

Welcome to JSON (v.2.53)
If you install JSON::XS v.2.27, it makes JSON faster.

************************** CAUTION **************************

  • This is ‘JSON version 2’ and there are many differences *
  • to version 1.xx *
  • Please check your applications useing old version. *
  • See to ‘INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES TO OLD VERSION’ and ‘TIPS’ *

Do you want to install JSON::XS?(Y/n) [Y]

My question is should I take the new version JSON::XS
as offered?

To answer my own question.
It looks like by taking the default ‘Y’
to the CPAN prompt:-

Do you want to install JSON::XS?(Y/n) [Y]

that both JSON modules were installed.
JSON – 2.53
JSON::XS – 2.33On Thu, 2 Aug 2012, o.nash@cs.ucc.ie wrote:

Json module uses faster version automatically if it’s installed. RT is not
a heavy user of the module, so difference is minimal. Version 2.x of the
module is ok. You dont need older version.
