I haven't tried either of the methods I mentioned so far (because I'm lazy, sorry:), but what I have tried is I created NSData from the large object by using NSKeyedArchiver. It has taken forever, so that I had to force-quit the process.
Yes, NSKeyedArchiver is not really suitable for large data-sets.
That's why I am asking if the same thing is going to happen with piples and DO? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Well, the two questions are really orthogonal: both DO and pipes will require serialization if you actually want to move the object across.
By "large" I mean about 10-100 MB. I don't think I am going to hit the boundary of VM anyway.
Can you tell us a bit more about the object in question? Is it really one object with 10-100MB of associated data? What's the data and how is it encoded? Or is it an object graph with lots of objects involved? Why do you want to move the object/data across to another task?
