Not specifically JSONB, but I do recall that with MongoDB's equivalent, BSON, the sizes of the binary equivalent tend to be larger in practice, I would expect JSONB to have a similar trade off.

There'll also be a conversion cost if you ultimately want it back in JSON form.

From the post:

> JSONB is also slightly smaller than text JSON in most cases (about 5% or 10% smaller) so you might also see a modest reduction in your database size if you use a lot of JSON.
