Question

How does Fury perform in terms of speed and size when serializing and deserializing Java arrays?

[chaokunyang]

Performance:

• For primitive array, it's as fast as a memory copy.
• For object array, depending on the data, the cost are basically (array_len * cost(element)) * 10% for most cases.

Size:

• For primitive array, it's array_len * size(element)
• For object array, fury are smaller than JDK serialization. Depending on the element type, the size reduction can be different.
