Riyad Kalla commented on COUCHDB-1754:
--------------------------------------

There might be two interesting SOC projects in relation to UBJSON:

1. Supporting UBJSON over-the-wire (I assume that is what this ticket is for?)
2. Supporting UBJSON as the on-disk binary data format for the CouchDB DB file, 
allowing records to be streamed directly off of disk with no serialization 
step. At least this was the original intent of UBJSON.

I know there are likely a boat load of details around #2 that I am not aware of 
that might make that an unlikely SOC project, but just wanted to throw it out 
there incase anyone was interested. I've always been curious to see what kind 
of performance water-level Couch could hit if we could remove the 
serialization/deserialization steps.
