* Switched from Grisu3 to `Dragonbox <https://github.com/jk-jeon/dragonbox>`_
for the default floating-point formatting which gives the shortest decimal
representation with round-trip and correct rounding guarantees

* Added an experimental unsynchronized file output API which, together with
the format string compilation, can give `5-9 times speed up compared to
