I read in the
Java RMI book by William Grosso that setting you own versioning scheme can quote
surprisingly improve performance even if you just implement Serializable.
Does anyone have some stats or facts of this. I saw the article and statistics on
IMPROVING SERIALIZATION PERFORMANCE WITH EXTERNALIZABLE, but I was wondering for some statistics on just setting you own serialVersionUID.
The author explains that without the serialVersionUID set, the default serialization mechanism has to compute a unique value which takes time.
My question, how much time?
Thanks in advance,
Leslie
