Changing the subject, as Adrian will need a reply to his (more important) question.
I don't think we should go shopping for different marshaller implementations, especially given other priorities. I've been keeping an eye on Kryo since a while and it looks very good indeed, but JBMarshaller is serving us pretty well and I'm loving its reliability. If we need more speed in this area, I'd rather see us perform some very accurate benchmark development and try to understand why Kyro is faster than JBM (if it really is), and potentially improve JBM. For example as I've already suggested, it's using an internal identityMap to detect graphs, and often we might not need that, or also it would be nice to refactor it to write to an existing byte stream rather than having it allocate internal buffers, and finally we might want a "stateless edition" so to get rid of need for pooling of JBMar instances. -- Sanne On 31 January 2014 16:29, Vladimir Blagojevic <vblag...@redhat.com> wrote: > Not 100% related to what you are asking about but have a look at this > post and the discussion that "erupted": > > http://gridgain.blogspot.ca/2012/12/java-serialization-good-fast-and-faster.html > > Vladimir > On 1/30/2014, 7:13 AM, Adrian Nistor wrote: >> Hi list! >> >> I've been pondering about re-using the marshalling machinery of >> Infinispan in another project, specifically in ProtoStream, where I'm >> planning to add it as a test scoped dependency so I can create a >> benchmark to compare marshalling performace.
