🎯 Changes

Skip JSON.parse for decoded search-parameter strings that cannot begin valid JSON. The check applies only when parseSearchWith receives JSON.parse; custom parsers still receive every string, and malformed JSON retains the existing fallback behavior.

Fix the regression test to install its spy before creating the parser, with a positive assertion that valid JSON reaches it. Add coverage for JSON whitespace, numeric forms, malformed values, repeated keys, and custom-parser failures. Encode and precompute benchmark fixtures so literal +1 tests the intended path.

Measured the proposed combined condition and an inverted-boolean variant. They save 11–12 raw bytes but add 3–4 gzip bytes in react-router.minimal, so this retains the original early-continue guard. Compared with current main, the guard adds 17 gzip bytes in that scenario and 11–34 bytes across all 18 scenarios.

Local Node v25.8.1 benchmarks show about 19× faster parsing for the ordinary-string fixture and 2.3× for the encoded mixed fixture. Valid JSON and some rejected-prefix cases have roughly 2–6% overhead; these are fixture-level results, not an end-to-end application speed claim.

Validation: affected lint (32 projects), types (36 projects), and unit tests (29 projects) passed. Router-core passed 1,655 tests plus 4 existing expected failures; all 8 Chromium search-parameter tests passed. Both baseline and final full bundle measurements completed.

The previous CodSpeed memory report used differing runtime environments; new CI results should be assessed separately from these local parsing measurements.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

parseSearchWith now skips unnecessary JSON.parse calls for values that cannot begin valid JSON. Custom parser behavior remains unchanged. Tests, benchmarks, compatibility results, bundle measurements, and release metadata document the change.

Changes

Search parameter parsing optimization

Layer / File(s)Summary
Default-parser guard
packages/router-core/src/searchParams.ts, .changeset/major-clowns-marry.md
parseSearchWith identifies JSON.parse at factory creation and skips values that cannot begin valid JSON. The changeset declares a patch release.
Parser behavior validation
packages/router-core/tests/searchParams.test.ts
Tests cover JSON parsing, custom parser invocation, thrown-parser fallback, decoded values, and repeated keys.
Benchmark and measurement evidence
packages/router-core/tests/searchParams-parse.bench.ts, RESULT-optimization-search-parse.md
Benchmarks cover default and custom parsers. The report records compatibility, bundle-size, validation, and performance results.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk:⚪ Minimal · up to f20c3
