Fast Serialization

published 3 days ago, submitted by adminjew 3 days, 18 hours ago

codebetter.com — We use ALOT of serialization in the current system I work with. Serializing/deserializing 100,000,000 objects in a day is pretty common.

If you're really clever, you'll remember to do some client-side and appropriate caching, but I rarely see that in the wild. read more...
