Serlialize is very slow for string. Is there any way the to speed it up at present, or an alternative way to save data structures which is significantly faster?
Are there any plans to speed up string serialization in Julia? Is there an easy low hanging fruit which needs work and could speed things up? Data IO is currently a big bottleneck for me using Julia, right now it's still tempting to use Python as one can open and save csv/dataframe files much much more quickly. Even just serializing a single string profile shows masses of calls in inference.jl. Surely this shouldn't be necessary?
