They quite clearly state that Jackson is the fastest, later in the paper.

But it's not. It's just the default/most popular one.

It's up from 2x slower than fastest Java one, as clearly shown in the links.

I read the paper quickly, but Jackson was really really fast. Note that their charts are measuring throughput, so a larger bar is better.

Dammit, I re-read the paper and I was wrong, you were right. But I can't delete/change my comment, so please downvote away. (I hate wrong information on the internet, and to be the source of it is a horrible feeling. Sorry.)
