Speaking of saving bytes, it was mentioned on this list a longer time ago, and for some reason rejected:
The idea of using Google Protocol Buffers instead of the currently rather unflexible implementation of LLSD. http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/apis/protocolbuffers/ The protocol buffers serve pretty much the same purpose, are less verbose, and support -optional- fields, which means that in some cases quite alot of overhead could be saved. Headers and cpp files for the messages can be autoconstructed as well. Worth a look, IMO.
