However, for those of us who have environments which include multiple programming languages, custom serializations become a PITA. As such, we generally go with something more portable such as Avro or straight JSON. Awhile back, I had done some work rewriting the JSON serialization functions to use the fast (and BSD licensed) yajl JSON parser (https://github.com/lloyd/yajl). Initial benchmarks showed a 4-7% performance improvement in serialization/deserialization. I'll see if I can dig it up--hopefully it's not on my dead computer. -- Jonah H.
