My understanding is that with R1.1.1 the session scoped beans are not serialized (thus Myfaces cannot be used in clustered deployments with shared sessions between containers). Serialization of backing beans to session is only added in the current build - and thus my questions regarding its performance.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

I think, sessions will generally perform much better since you don't have marshalling/unmarshalling overhead. Are there any good reasons to use client-side serialization at all? Bye. /lexi
