SBJSON ios 5 or native apple JSON

Just started using JSON in iOS. I have a previous version of an application that uses SBJSON. I am rebuilding it from the ground up, and was wondering if I should continue to use SBJSON or apple's native JSON support?

Thanks

Note that SBJSON (and my modified version of KSJSON) supports custom object serialization, which not only makes it – of course – slower than NSJSONSerialization, but also might be exactly what you need.

NSJSONSerialization does not support object graphs with custom classes.

The only reason I see for staying with the SBJSON classes is iOS < 5.0 compatibility. If you plan on targeting iOS 5.0 and up, I'd go with the native NSJSONSerialization. Native is almost always the better option when developing for iOS, in my opinion.

Some people have done some research on this and seems like NSJSONSerialization is more performant than SBJSON
