You can also use general purpose compressors like Zstandard to create a generic patch:

    zstd --patch-from old.json new.json -o patch.zst
    zstd --patch-from old.json -d patch.zst -o updated.json

And last I tested, this was more performant and space efficient than JSON Patch...

JSON-patch is not a generic patch. It's not the same thing.
