Add FracturedJson formatting support for DOM serialization (#2580 )
* Add FracturedJson formatting support for DOM serialization Implements FracturedJson formatting as requested in issue #2576. FracturedJson produces human-readable yet compact JSON output by intelligently choosing between different layout strategies based on content complexity, length, and structure similarity. Key features: - Four layout modes: inline, compact multiline, table, and expanded - Structure analysis pass to compute metrics before formatting - Table formatting for arrays of similar objects with column alignment - Configurable options for line length, indentation, padding, etc. New files: - fractured_json.h: Public API with fractured_json_options struct - fractured_json-inl.h: Implementation (~1000 lines) - json_structure_analyzer.h: Structure analysis for layout decisions - fractured_formatter.h: Formatter class using CRTP pattern Usage: dom::parser parser; element doc = parser.parse(json_string); std::cout << fractured_json(doc) << std::endl; // Or with custom options: fractured_json_options opts; opts.indent_spaces = 2; std::cout << fractured_json(doc, opts) << std::endl; // Or format any JSON string (useful with reflection API): auto formatted = fractured_json_string(minified_json); Resolves #2576 * Add comprehensive tests for FracturedJson formatter Adds 27 test cases covering all aspects of the FracturedJson formatter: Core functionality tests (13): - Roundtrip parsing verification - Inline formatting for simple arrays and objects - Expanded formatting for complex nested structures - Compact multiline arrays with configurable items per line - Table formatting for uniform arrays of objects - Empty container handling - All scalar types (string, int, uint, double, bool, null) - String escaping (quotes, backslashes, control characters) - Custom indentation options - Deep nesting (10+ levels) - Mixed type arrays Edge case tests (11): - Unicode strings (Chinese, emoji, Arabic, Russian, accented chars) - Boundary numbers (INT64_MIN/MAX, UINT64_MAX, DBL_MIN/MAX) - Nested arrays (arrays of arrays) - Empty string values - Keys with special characters (spaces, quotes, colons, etc.) - Non-uniform arrays (should not trigger table mode) - Very long strings (500+ chars) - Large arrays (100 elements) - Reflection API workflow simulation - Control characters (tab, newline, CR, null) - Single element containers Option tests (3): - Disable compact multiline mode - Disable table format mode - Disable all padding options * Add FracturedJson integration with builder/reflection API Extends FracturedJson to work seamlessly with the builder API, enabling formatted output directly from C++ structs using static reflection. New functions: - to_fractured_json_string(obj, opts) - serialize struct to formatted JSON - to_fractured_json(obj, output, opts) - same with output parameter - extract_fractured_json<fields...>(obj, opts) - format only specific fields These functions combine the builder's reflection-based serialization with FracturedJson formatting in a single convenient call: struct User { int id; std::string name; bool active; }; User user{1, "Alice", true}; // Minified output (existing): auto minified = to_json_string(user); // {"id":1,"name":"Alice","active":true} // Formatted output (new): auto formatted = to_fractured_json_string(user); // { "id": 1, "name": "Alice", "active": true } // Partial extraction with formatting: auto partial = extract_fractured_json<"id", "name">(user); // { "id": 1, "name": "Alice" } New files: - generic/builder/fractured_json_builder.h - builder integration - tests/builder/static_reflection_fractured_json_tests.cpp - 7 tests * Fix INT64_MIN overflow and implement table_similarity_threshold - Fix undefined behavior when negating INT64_MIN in estimate_number_length() and measure_value_length() by returning 20 (the exact length of the string representation) directly - Actually use table_similarity_threshold in check_array_uniformity() by calling compute_object_similarity() to compare objects against the first object in the array * Fix -Werror=effc++ member initialization warnings Initialize all member variables in member initialization lists to satisfy GCC's -Werror=effc++ flag: - element_metrics::common_keys - add {} default initializer - structure_analyzer - add default constructor with member init list - fractured_formatter - add column_widths_{} to constructor - fractured_string_builder - add analyzer_{} to constructor * Add Rule of Five to structure_analyzer class The class has a pointer member (current_opts_) which triggers -Werror=effc++ requiring explicit copy/move operations. Delete copy operations (class shouldn't be copied due to cache) and default move operations. * Fix Windows build: wrap std::max to avoid macro conflict Windows.h defines max/min macros that interfere with std::max/std::min. Wrapping in parentheses as (std::max)(...) prevents macro expansion. * Fix GCC 15 false positive -Wfree-nonheap-object warning GCC 15 on MINGW64 gives a false positive warning in parser_moving_parser() when the std::vector<std::string> goes out of scope. Suppress this specific warning with a pragma for GCC builds. * Fix metrics cache key bug by passing metrics through recursion The cache was using element addresses as keys, but dom::element objects are lightweight wrappers that get copied during iteration, causing different addresses between analysis and formatting phases. This resulted in cache misses and fallback to empty metrics. Solution: Store child metrics in the element_metrics struct and pass them through recursive calls, eliminating the need for address-based caching entirely. Changes: - Add children vector to element_metrics for hierarchical metrics - Remove metrics_cache_ and related get_metrics/has_metrics methods - Update all format functions to accept and pass child metrics - Add public analyze_array/analyze_object overloads for standalone use * Add ignore patterns for Node.js, Rust, and generated files Add entries for node_modules, package-lock.json, Rust target directories, local ablation artifacts, and generated documentation files. * Refactor: extract analyze_scalar helper to reduce code duplication Extract common scalar type handling (STRING, INT64, UINT64, DOUBLE, BOOL, NULL_VALUE) into a dedicated analyze_scalar method. Each scalar type shares the same initialization pattern for complexity, child_count, can_inline, and recommended_layout. Also simplify boolean formatting in format_scalar to use ternary operator. * Fix formatting and duplicate error message in amalgamate.py Reformat cramped is_amalgamator condition to multi-line for readability. Fix duplicate error message text in _included_filename_root and use correct variable name (relative_root instead of root). * Refactor: add count_newlines helper in fractured_json tests Extract repeated newline counting loop into a reusable static helper function, used by inline_array_test, inline_object_test, and expanded_test. * Revert "Add ignore patterns for Node.js, Rust, and generated files" This reverts commit 4760ea7cd0. * various minor changes --------- Co-authored-by: Daniel Lemire <daniel@lemire.me>

+* We follow the [JSON specification as described by RFC 8259](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8259.txt) (T. Bray, 2017). If you wish to support features that are not part of RFC 8259, then you should not refer to your issue as a bug.


 **Describe the bug**
-A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
+A clear and concise description of what the bug is. A bug is a failure to build with normal compiler settings or a misbehaviour: when running the code, you get a result that differs from the expected result from our documentation.

-Note that a compiler warning is not a bug.
+A compiler or static-analyzer warning is not a bug. It is possible with tools such as Visual Studio to require that rarely enabled warnings are considered errors. Do not report such cases as bugs. We do accept pull requests if you want to silence warnings issued by code analyzers, however.
+
+We are committed to providing good documentation. We accept the lack of documentation or a misleading documentation as a bug (a 'documentation bug').
+
+An unexpected poor software performance can be accepted as a bug (a 'performance bug').
+
+We accept the identification of an issue by a sanitizer or some checker tool (e.g., valgrind) as a bug, but you must first ensure that it is not a false positive.
+
+We recommend that you run your tests using different optimization levels. In particular, we recommend your run tests with the simdjson library and you code compiled in debug mode. The simdjson then sets the SIMDJSON_DEVELOPMENT_CHECKS macro to 1, and this triggers additional checks on your code and on the internals of the library. If possible, we recommend that you run tests with sanitizers (e.g., see [No more leaks with sanitize flags in gcc and clang](https://lemire.me/blog/2016/04/20/no-more-leaks-with-sanitize-flags-in-gcc-and-clang/)).  You can compile the library with sanitizers for debugging purposes (e.g., set SIMDJSON_SANITIZE to ON using CMake), but you should also turn on sanitizers on your own code. You may also use tools like valgrind or the commercial equivalent.
+
+Before reporting a bug, please ensure that you have read our documentation.

 **To Reproduce**
-Steps to reproduce the behaviour: provide a code sample if possible.
+Steps to reproduce the behaviour: provide a code sample if possible. Please provide a complete test with data. Remember that a bug is either a failure to build or an unexpected result when running the code.

-If we cannot reproduce the issue, then we cannot address it.
+If we cannot reproduce the issue, then we cannot address it. Note that a stack trace from your own program is not enough. A sample of your source code is insufficient: please provide a complete test for us to reproduce the issue. Please reduce the issue: use as small and as simple an example of the bug as possible.

-Note that a stack trace from your own program is not enough.
+It should be possible to trigger the bug by using solely simdjson with our default build setup. If you can only observe the bug within some specific context, with some other software, please reduce the issue first.

-**Configuration (please complete the following information if relevant):**
+**simdjson release**
+
+Unless you plan to contribute to simdjson, you should only work from releases. Please be mindful that our main branch may have additional features, bugs and documentation items.
+
+It is fine to report bugs against our main branch, but if that is what you are doing, please be explicit.
+
+**Configuration (please complete the following information if relevant)**
 - OS: [e.g. Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS]
- - Compiler [e.g. Apple clang version 11.0.3 (clang-1103.0.32.59) x86_64-apple-darwin19.4.0]

+We support up-to-date 64-bit ARM and x64 FreeBSD, macOS, Windows and Linux systems. Please ensure that your configuration is supported before labelling the issue as a bug.

+pre-release version of a compiler, do not report it as a bug to simdjson. However, we always
+invite contributions either in the form an analysis or of a code contribution.
+
+Under Windows, we support Visual Studio (both with LLVM and without). We do not support MinGW and other alternate compiler systems. Windows users should be aware that there [is a long-running bug with GCC under Windows](https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54412).

-# Though simdjson requires only commonly available compilers and tools, it can
-# be convenient to build it and test it inside a docker container: it makes it
-# possible to test and benchmark simdjson under even relatively out-of-date
-# Linux servers. It should also work under macOS and Windows, though not
-# at native speeds, maybe.
-#
-# Assuming that you have a working docker server, this file
-# allows you to build, test and benchmark simdjson.
-#
-#  We build the library and associated files in the dockerbuild subdirectory.
-# It may be necessary to delete it before creating the image:
-#
-# rm -r -f dockerbuild
-#
-# The need to delete the directory has nothing to do with docker per se: it is
-# simply cleaner in CMake to start from a fresh directory. This is important: if you
-# reuse the same directory with different configurations, you may get broken builds.
-#
-#
-# Then you can build the image as follows:
-#
-# docker build -t simdjson --build-arg USER_ID=$(id -u)  --build-arg GROUP_ID=$(id -g) .
-#
-# Please note that the image does not contain a copy of the code. However, the image will contain the
-# the compiler and the build system. This means that if you change the source code, after you have built
-# the image, you won't need to rebuild the image. In fact, unless you want to try a different compiler, you
-# do not need to ever rebuild the image, even if you do a lot of work on the source code.
-#
-# We specify the users to avoid having files owned by a privileged user (root) in our directory. Some
-# people like to run their machine as the "root" user. We do not think it is cool.
-#
-# Then you need to build the project:
-#
-# docker run  -v $(pwd):/project:Z  simdjson
-#
-# Should you change a source file, you may need to call this command again. Because the output
-# files are persistent between calls to this command (they reside in the dockerbuild directory),
-# this command can be fast.
-#
-# Next you can test it as follows:
-#
-# docker run -it -v $(pwd):/project:Z   simdjson sh -c "cd dockerbuild && ctest . --output-on-failure -LE explicitonly"
-#
-# The run the complete tests requires you to have built all of simdjson.
-#
-# Building all of simdjson takes a long time. Instead, you can build just one target:
-#
-# docker run -it -v $(pwd):/project:Z  simdjson sh -c "[ -d dockerbuild ] || mkdir dockerbuild && cd dockerbuild && cmake ..  && cmake --build . --target parse"
-#
-# Note that it is safe to remove dockerbuild before call the previous command, as the repository gets rebuild. It is also possible, by changing the command, to use a different directory name.
-#
-# You can run performance tests:
-#
-# docker run -it --privileged -v $(pwd):/project:Z  simdjson sh -c "cd dockerbuild && for i in ../jsonexamples/*.json; do echo \$i; ./benchmark/parse \$i;  done"
-#
-# The "--privileged" is recommended so you can get performance counters under Linux.
-#
-# You can also grab a fresh copy of simdjson and rebuild it, to make comparisons:
-#
-# docker run -it -v $(pwd):/project:Z  simdjson sh -c "git clone https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson.git && cd simdjson && mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && cmake --build . --target parse "

+Build Quickstart
+------------------------------
+
+For non-Windows system,
+
+```bash
+cmake -B -D SIMDJSON_DEVELOPER_MODE=ON ..
+cmake --build build
+ctest --test-dir build
+```
+
+It is similar for Visual Studio users, please see the CMake or Visual Studio documentation.
+
+By default the library is built in Release mode.
+
+
+Assertions and development checks
+------------------------------
+
+We do not use conventional `assert` in simdjson. Instead we use the macro
+`SIMDJSON_ASSUME`:
+
+```cpp
+SIMDJSON_ASSUME(something_that_is_true());
+```
+
+Sometimes, you need to do a bit more work that a simple check.
+The `SIMDJSON_DEVELOPMENT_CHECKS` macro is true only in Debug mode unless manually set.
+It is acceptable to add checks that you would not do in Release mode as long as
+they are guarded:
+
+```cpp
+#if SIMDJSON_DEVELOPMENT_CHECKS
+// do sanity checks here
+```
+
+
+Working with sanitizers
+------------------------------
+
+The simdjson library must be memory-safe. We cannot allow buffer overruns.
+During development, if you system supports it, we recommend configuring
+the project with `-D SIMDJSON_SANITIZE=ON`.
+
+```bash
+cmake -B -D SIMDJSON_SANITIZE=ON -D SIMDJSON_DEVELOPER_MODE=ON ..
+cmake --build build
+ctest --test-dir build
+```

+Developer mode
+--------------
+
+Build system targets that are only useful for developers of the simdjson
+library are behind the `SIMDJSON_DEVELOPER_MODE` option. Enabling this option
+makes tests, examples, benchmarks and other developer targets available. Not
+enabling this option means that you are a consumer of simdjson and thus you
+only get the library targets and options.
+
+Developer mode is forced to be on when the `CI` environment variable is set to
+a value that CMake recognizes as "on", which is set to `true` in all of the CI
+workflows used by simdjson.

 Directory Structure and Source
 ------------------------------

+Before diving into the directory structure, here are key concepts used in the codebase:
+
+- **Amalgamated File**: A file that is conditionally included in the amalgamation process. These are wrapped in `#ifndef SIMDJSON_CONDITIONAL_INCLUDE` blocks and are included based on the target implementation (e.g., ARM64, x86). They include implementation-specific files (e.g., `arm64.h`) and generic files (e.g., under `generic/`). Amalgamated files have associated dependency files (`dependencies.h`) to track includes.
+
+- **Amalgamator File**: A file that orchestrates the inclusion of amalgamated files. Examples: `arm64.h`, `arm64/implementation.h`, `generic/amalgamated.h`. These are not themselves amalgamated but control conditional inclusions.
+
+- **Free Dependency File**: A top-level header that is always included unconditionally. These do not have dependency files and represent the public API (e.g., main headers).
+
+- **Implementation-Specific File**: A file tied to a specific CPU architecture or instruction set (e.g., `arm64/`, `haswell/`). These must be amalgamated.
+
+- **Generic File**: A shared file (under `generic/` or `simdjson/generic/`) that contains common code included once per implementation.
+
+- **Builtin File**: Special files under `simdjson/builtin/` that handle the builtin implementation, a fallback/default implementation used when no optimized implementation is available.
+
+- **Conditional Include Block**: A section wrapped in `#ifndef SIMDJSON_CONDITIONAL_INCLUDE` for editor-only or implementation-specific content.
+
+The script `singleheader/amalgation_helper.py` will generate an HTML report which you can use to visualize the status of each file.
+
 simdjson's source structure, from the top level, looks like this:

 * **CMakeLists.txt:** The main build system.
 * **include:** User-facing declarations and inline definitions (most user-facing functions are inlined).
-  * simdjson.h: A "main include" that includes files from include/simdjson/. This is equivalent to

+    * simdjson/*.h: Declarations for public simdjson classes and functions.
+    * simdjson/*-inl.h: Definitions for public simdjson classes and functions.
+    * simdjson/internal/*.h: the `simdjson::internal` namespace. Private classes and functions used by the rest of simdjson.
+  * simdjson/dom.h: the `simdjson::dom` namespace. Includes all public DOM classes.
+    * simdjson/dom/*.h: Declarations/definitions for individual DOM classes.
+  * simdjson/arm64|fallback|haswell|icelake|ppc64|westmere.h: `simdjson::<implementation>` namespace. Common implementation-specific tools like number and string parsing, as well as minification.
+    * simdjson/arm64|fallback|haswell|icelake|ppc64|westmere/*.h: implementation-specific functions such as , etc.
+    * simdjson/generic/*.h: the bulk of the actual code, written generically and compiled for each implementation, using functions defined in the implementation's .h files.
+      * simdjson/generic/dependencies.h: dependencies on common, non-implementation-specific simdjson classes. This will be included before including amalgamated.h.
+      * simdjson/generic/amalgamated.h: all generic ondemand classes for an implementation.
+  * simdjson/ondemand.h: the `simdjson::ondemand` namespace. Includes all public ondemand classes.
+    * simdjson/builtin.h: the `simdjson::builtin` namespace. Aliased to the most universal implementation available.
+    * simdjson/builtin/ondemand.h: the `simdjson::builtin::ondemand` namespace.
+    * simdjson/arm64|fallback|haswell|icelake|ppc64|westmere/ondemand.h: the `simdjson::<implementation>::ondemand` namespace. On-Demand compiled for the specific implementation.
+    * simdjson/generic/ondemand/*.h: individual On-Demand classes, generically written.

Because we compile for a generic processor, we would not be able to use most intrinsic functions. Thankfully, more recent versions of these compilers allow us to flag a region of code with a specific target, so that we can compile only some of the code with support for advanced instructions. Thus in our C++, one might notice macros like `TARGET_HASWELL`. It is then our responsability, at runtime, to only run the regions of code (that we call kernels) matching the properties of the runtime processor.

 2. Under Visual Studio, the problem is somewhat simpler. Visual Studio will not only provide the intrinsic functions, but it will also allow us to use them. They will compile just fine. It is at runtime that they may cause a crash. So we do not need to mark regions of code for compilation toward advanced processors (e.g., with  `TARGET_HASWELL` macros). The downside of the Visual Studio approach is that the compiler is not allowed to use advanced instructions others than those we specify. In principle, this means that Visual Studio has weaker optimization opportunities.

-# 0.5
-
-## Highlights
-
-Performance
-* Faster and simpler UTF-8 validation with the lookup4 algorithm https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/993
-* We improved the performance of simdjson under Visual Studio by about 25%. Users will still get better performance with clang-cl (+30%) but the gap has been reduced. https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/1031
-
-Code usability
-* In `parse_many`, when parsing streams of JSON documetns, we give to the users runtime control as to whether threads are used (via the parser.threaded attribute). https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/issues/925
-* Prefixed public macros to avoid name clashes with other libraries. https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/issues/1035
-* Better documentation regarding package managers (brew, MSYS2, conan, apt, vcpkg, FreeBSD package manager, etc.).
-* Better documentation regarding  CMake usage.
-
-Standards
-* We improved standard compliance with respect to both the JSON RFC 8259 and JSON Pointer RFC 6901. We added the at_pointer method to nodes for standard-compliant JSON Pointer queries. The legacy `at(std::string_view)` method remains but is deprecated since it is not standard-compliant as per  RFC 6901.
-* We removed computed GOTOs without sacrificing performance thus improving the C++ standard compliance (since computed GOTOs are compiler-specific extensions).
-* Better support for C++20 https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/1050
-
-# 0.4
-
-## Highlights
-
- Test coverage has been greatly improved and we have resolved many static-analysis warnings on different systems.
- We added a fast (8GB/s) minifier that works directly on JSON strings.
- We added fast (10GB/s) UTF-8 validator that works directly on strings (any strings, including non-JSON).
- The array and object elements have a constant-time size() method.
- Performance improvements to the API (type(), get<>()).
- The parse_many function (ndjson) has been entirely reworked. It now uses a single secondary thread instead of several new threads.
- We have introduced a faster UTF-8 validation algorithm (lookup3) for all kernels (ARM, x64 SSE, x64 AVX).
- C++11 support for older compilers and systems.
- FreeBSD support (and tests).
- We support the clang front-end compiler (clangcl) under Visual Studio.
- It is now possible to target ARM platforms under Visual Studio.
- The simdjson library will never abort or print to standard output/error.
-
-# 0.3
-
-## Highlights
-
- **Multi-Document Parsing:** Read a bundle of JSON documents (ndjson) 2-4x faster than doing it
-  individually. [API docs](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/basics.md#newline-delimited-json-ndjson-and-json-lines) / [Design Details](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/parse_many.md)
- **Simplified API:** The API has been completely revamped for ease of use, including a new JSON
-  navigation API and fluent support for error code *and* exception styles of error handling with a
-  single API. [Docs](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/basics.md#the-basics-loading-and-parsing-json-documents)
- **Exact Float Parsing:** Now simdjson parses floats flawlessly *without* any performance loss,
-  thanks to [great work by @michaeleisel and @lemire](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/558).
-  [Blog Post](https://lemire.me/blog/2020/03/10/fast-float-parsing-in-practice/)
- **Even Faster:** The fastest parser got faster! With a [shiny new UTF-8 validator](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/387)
-  and meticulously refactored SIMD core, simdjson 0.3 is 15% faster than before, running at 2.5 GB/s
-  (where 0.2 ran at 2.2 GB/s).
-
-## Minor Highlights
-
- Fallback implementation: simdjson now has a non-SIMD fallback implementation, and can run even on
-  very old 64-bit machines.
- Automatic allocation: as part of API simplification, the parser no longer has to be preallocated--
-  it will adjust automatically when it encounters larger files.
- Runtime selection API: We've exposed simdjson's runtime CPU detection and implementation selection
-  as an API, so you can tell what implementation we detected and test with other implementations.
- Error handling your way: Whether you use exceptions or check error codes, simdjson lets you handle
-  errors in your style. APIs that can fail return simdjson_result<T>, letting you check the error
-  code before using the result. But if you are more comfortable with exceptions, skip the error code
-  and cast straight to T, and exceptions will be thrown automatically if an error happens. Use the
-  same API either way!
- Error chaining: We also worked to keep non-exception error-handling short and sweet. Instead of
-  having to check the error code after every single operation, now you can *chain* JSON navigation
-  calls like looking up an object field or array element, or casting to a string, so that you only
-  have to check the error code once at the very end.

+# Accessor Performance Benchmarks (C++26)
+
+These benchmarks compare the performance of runtime vs compile-time JSON accessors.
+For the comparison to be meaningful, you must build simdjson with support for
+C++26 reflexion. See the `p2996` repository in the main project directory.
+
+## Files
+
+- `accessor_benchmark.h` - Common benchmark framework and test data
+- `runtime_accessors.h` - Runtime `at_path()` benchmarks
+- `compile_time_accessors.h` - Compile-time `at_path_compiled()` benchmarks (requires C++26 reflection)
+
+## Benchmarks
+
+Each benchmark measures parsing + single field access:
+
+1. **accessor_simple** - Simple field: `.name`
+2. **accessor_nested** - Nested field: `.address.city`
+3. **accessor_deep** - Deep nested field: `.address.coordinates.lat`
+
+## Building (Linux/macOS)
+
+```bash
+cmake -B build -D SIMDJSON_STATIC_REFLECTION=ON -DSIMDJSON_DEVELOPER_MODE=ON
+cmake --build build --target=bench_ondemand
+```
+
+The `SIMDJSON_STATIC_REFLECTION` will be made unnecessary once mainstream compilers
+begin supporting C++26 sufficiently well.
+
+## Running (Linux/macOS)
+
+
+```bash
+# Run all accessor benchmarks
+./build/bench_ondemand --benchmark_filter="accessor"
+```
+
+## Results
+
+We find that compile-time accessors show performance improvements that scale with path depth:
+- Simple fields: ~1.2x faster
+- Nested fields: ~1.5x faster
+- Deep nested fields: ~1.8x faster
+
+The speedup comes from eliminating runtime path parsing and conversion overhead.
