Objectives
Soon after the project started it stopped being just about thrit and protobuf, but the name stays. the project is about comparing serialization performance and other aspects of serialization libraries on the JVM. Overall we have benchmarks for protobuf, thrift, java, scala, few implementations of stax, binaryxml, json, xstream, javolution, hessian, avro, sbinary and more.
