This test focusses on en/decoding of a cyclefree data structure. Some serializers support cycle detection/object sharing, some offer both modes, some include full metadata, some don't, some are cross platform, some are language specific, some are text based, some are binary. (See ToolBeahviour ) Other test data will yield in different results. However the results give a raw estimation of library performance.

java version "1.7.0_51" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_51-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.51-b03, mixed mode)

SIMPLE/GENERIC:
Serializes any POJO tree without class specific optimization. Serialized classes are known in advance. No cycle detection/shared object detection is done.

DEFAULT:
Serializes any object trees, cycle detection enabled. Nothing is known in advance about the classes to serialize. Only serializers supporting full object graph restauration are included.

SIMPLE/SPECIFC: Serializes only specific classes using code generation or other special knowledge about the class.

MANUAL:
Serializes only specific classes using hand written serialization code.
