hi...
i implemented and shortly benchmarked a binary serializer (which means serializing and unserializing php-variables into a binary representation). At the moment it is written as an extension, but perhaps it is interesting to let it become a standard-extension or part of ext/standard (var.c) and ext/session (to avoid registering the serialize_handler at runtime). Here is the url to the extension:
http://fum.no-ip.com/php/fbinary/
There are some additional informations about it and also the benchmarks. Hopefully it is interesting for anybody...
