--------------------------------------------
bq. I pretty much sure, it's expensive in Java too, isn't it?
Yes, it is very expensive in Java too.
bq. serialization to binary format is implemented using streams
In that case we need to define which parts can be optimized in all platfroms.
And then I'll rollback incompatible changes.
> BinaryMarshaller should write ints in "varint" encoding where it makes sense

> Key: IGNITE-5097
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-5097
> Project: Ignite
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: general
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Vladimir Ozerov
> Assignee: Vyacheslav Daradur
> Labels: important, performance
> Fix For: 2.1
>
>
> There are a lot of places in the code where we write integers for some
> special purposes. Quite often their value will be vary small, so that
> applying "varint" format could save a lot of space at the cost of very low
> additional CPU overhead.
> Specifically:
> 1) Array/collection/map lengths
> 2) BigDecimal's (usually will save ~6 bytes)
> 3) Strings
> 4) Enum ordinals
