While in .net core 3.0 System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer.Serialize is faster than NewtonJson.
1.
NewtonJsonDemo cost 1704 milliseconds.
JsonSerializerDemo cost 1247 milliseconds.
2.
NewtonJsonDemo cost 1596 milliseconds.
JsonSerializerDemo cost 1451 milliseconds.
3.
NewtonJsonDemo cost 1430 milliseconds.
