Is this allocation free (gc free)?

Thanks for sharing this. I can see the benchmark is pretty amazing, however, may I ask is this allocation free?

Currently, it is not GC-free, because, for example, it creates JsonValue objects for every parsed JSON. However, the main data structures are allocated only once (when a SimdJsonParser instance is created), so I belive it wouldn't be difficult to introduce a GC-free version.

thanks for the reply. I think it would be extremely helpful to introduce a gc free version, and it will improve the popularity for this project a lot. Currently, all the crypto trading industry are dying for a gc free version of json parser for crypto hft. Obviously, we all implement our own verison of gc free parser. but would be much better to have support here. Also, if it would support using java bytebuffer and agrona direct buffer, to allow manipulation of offheap would be ideal as well
