Reference:

CBOR Encoding is described in RFC7049

Comparison of JSON vs CBOR

Two main areas of reduction are:

  1. CPU usage to write a log msg
  2. Size (in bytes) of log messages.

CPU Usage savings are below:

Log message size savings is greatly dependent on the number and type of fields in the log message. Assuming this log message (with an Integer, timestamp and string, in addition to level).

{"level":"error","Fault":41650,"time":"2018-04-01T15:18:19-07:00","message":"Some Message"}

Two measurements were done for the log file sizes - one without any compression, second using compress/zlib.

Results for 10,000 log messages:

Log Format Plain File Size (in KB) Compressed File Size (in KB)
JSON 920 28
CBOR 550 28

The example used to calculate the above data is available in Examples.
