Re: [boost] [serialization] performance comparison"
There isn't a library to download. Its an online service.
Ah OK, that makes it a useless in real world apps then for me and probably a lot of other people. Do you think online code generation is useless in general?
From the docs it looks like you only support some predefined types as well. We support user defined types, but there are limitations in this area. We're working on removing the limitations.
It would be more useful if you publish the exact performance tests (and build files) you use so we can make meaningful comparisions and know we're testing the same thing.
Right. In doing this I found an error in what I reported about the sizes of the executables. I said that the Boost 1.35 version on Linux was about ~22,000 bytes and the EE version ~8,200 bytes. I had an include of an .ipp file in the boost version that wasn't needed. (It was needed on Windows.) When I removed that the Boost version was ~16,800 bytes. The run time numbers didn't change after removing the include. Sorry about the incorrect report. The Boost version of the test is here http://www.webEbenezer.net/bser.cc The EE version http://www.webEbenezer.net/ee.cc http://www.webEbenezer.net/msgs.h God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

It's useless for just about all commercial parties. Standard intellectual property rules prohibit dissemination to third parties without lengthy, complicated, and usually high-cost insurance backed disclosure agreements. It's useless for all military contracting parties as clearances prevent any dissemination. It might be OK for open source. But the OSS community is more likely to write a replacement for which they have the source to. Doesn't leave many uses...

Pretty much so yes. And even if it was non-commercial so that the very real confidentiality concerns that Rene raises that would prevent it being used anywhere I have worked were not an issue the fact that it cannot be integrated into the build process easily and lack of source code so the progress of the project is at the whim of any bugs would deter many from using it or even considering it.
