I have noticed a large speed decrease on php 4.3.10 versus 4.3.9, on large unserializes. On 4.3.9
unserializing 850k of data produced no noticable delay in the script, but upgrading to 4.3.10 adds
something like 5-10 seconds.
So until/unless they make the unserialize function faster, I recommend against using it as a quick
and dirty database unless you're willing to drop back to 4.3.9. Previously, serializing your
data and writing it to a file was sometimes convenient.
