Zili Chen commented on ZOOKEEPER-102:
-------------------------------------

Another requirement is that due to jute packet limited within 1MB, one znode 
cannot contains data beyond 1MB. It quite limits the burden nowadays quite a 
few metadata grow over KB to MB and even 1 GB < m < 10 GB. If this bottleneck 
can be unblocked actually we can extend quite a lot volume of znode.

[~andor] I am not quite sure if things work as I describe above, could you help 
review the statement and correct me if I'm wrong?

> ZooKeeper currently uses Jute to serialize objects to put on the wire and on 
> disk. We pulled Jute out of Hadoop and added a C binding. Both versions of 
> Jute have evolved (although Hadoop still doesn't have a C binding). It would 
> be nice to use a more standard serialization library. Some options include 
> Thrift or Google's protocol buffers.
> Our main requirements would be Java and C bindings and good performance. (For 
> example, serializing to XML would give us incredibly bad performance and 
> would not be acceptible!)
