Hi,

I noticed that json.erl and its derivative haxe.erl both call
list_to_atom() in obj_store(), which is called when parsing an object.
According to previous discussions about the atom table, this can have
bad consequences because atoms don't get garbage collected. Therefore,
it would probably be a good idea to remove these calls and store
object keys as lists. What do you think?
