Title
Body
Is there any performance advantage of using content type application/json sending an object serialized to json over text/plain ? I know many frameworks (like Spring) can map and serialize data based on the content type, but in general I find that this process is easy enough that it isn't a compelling reason to use application/json over text/plain for JSON objects. Example: xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-type","text/plain"); // or xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-type","application/json"); xhr.send(JSON.stringify({"foo": "bar"}));
