Re: Binary (msgpack) serialize/unserialize

Hi! > Back in 2014 there was an informal proposal on the mailing list to replace > PHP serialization with an efficient binary (msgpack) format. Why replace? If you have it as an extension, can't people that want to use it just use it? I'm still not sure why we need to do anything in core that can't be done in an extension. Is there some handler missing that doesn't allow to use custom serializer in some scenario? -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
