I've been experimenting with the Boost.Serialization library, to decide whether to use it in a project I'm working on. If it weren't for some performance issues, the decision of whether to use this library would be a no-brainer. Because it seemed otherwise so promising, I've spent some time investigating these performance issues, and have a couple of suggestions for improvements that would address them. (Obviously these suggestions are for post-1.33 release.)
I can second Kim's experience; I've written a marshalling framework myself, and found that the frequent creation and deletion of Boost.Serialization archives became a bottleneck in the whole system. Regards, Jarl.
