The integration with other Google tools, such as Snappy, is obviously good as well.
For simple data types, MessagePack is simpler and more efficient than Protocol Buffers, and has implementations for many languages as well. However, Protocol Buffers clearly offers more features, even in "lite" mode. Therefore, the choice boils down to your current and future needs :) Lionel. ________________________________ Ce message et les pièces jointes sont confidentiels et réservés à l'usage exclusif de ses destinataires.
