Very cool tool. It's perfect for the "take a quick look" use-case.

I just downloaded it on MacOS and when I ran it the first time it took a really long time on a one-line JSON which disappointed me but then any subsequent run on anything was fast. I'd completely forgotten about MacOS doing that thing on first run.
