>             Project: TinkerPop
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: python
>    Affects Versions: 3.5.1

> h1. Problem
> When submitting traversals including float values, the GraphSON-serialized traversal truncates them:
> {code:java}
> g.V().has("id", "X").property("popularity", 0.099999).iterate(){code}
> is serialized to
>   
> {code:java}
> {"gremlin":{"@type":"g:Bytecode","@value":{"source":[],"step":[["V"],["has","id","X"],["property","popularity",{"@type":"g:Double","@value":0.1}],["none"]]}},"processor":"traversal"}
> {code}
> h1. Cause
> In {{[gremlin_python/driver/serializer.py|https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/master/gremlin-python/src/main/python/gremlin_python/driver/serializer.py#L19-L22]}} (but also {{protocol.py}} in passing), {{ujson}} is imported in place of stdlib {{json}}:
> {code:java}
> try:
>   import ujson as json
> except ImportError:
>   import json
> {code}
> This is certainly done for performance reasons, but this has an impact on floating point precision.
> With {{ujson <}} 2.0, if {{precise_float}} is not specified (which is the case):
> {code:java}
> ujson.dumps(0.099999) == '0.1'{code}
> With {{ujson}} >= 2.0, out-of-the-box floating point precision was improved: 
> {code:java}
> ujson.dumps(0.099999) == '0.099999'{code}
> Here is the change in ujson explaining the difference: [ultrajson/ultrajson@{{eb7d894}}|https://github.com/ultrajson/ultrajson/commit/eb7d894f225bb89d269188ba6ec559b914a71b8a]
> h1. Potential solution
> Could {{ujson}} be listed as an optional dependency in {{setup.py}} with version >= 2.0 ?
