序列化和反序列化.NET对象的最快方法

I'm looking for the fastest way to serialize and deserialize .NET objects. Here is what I have so far:

我正在寻找最快的方法来序列化和反序列化。net对象。这是我到目前为止所得到的:

public class TD
{
    public List<CT> CTs { get; set; }
    public List<TE> TEs { get; set; }
    public string Code { get; set; }
    public string Message { get; set; }
    public DateTime StartDate { get; set; }
    public DateTime EndDate { get; set; }

    public static string Serialize(List<TD> tData)
    {
        var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List<TD>));

        TextWriter writer = new StringWriter();
        serializer.Serialize(writer, tData);

        return writer.ToString();
    }

    public static List<TD> Deserialize(string tData)
    {
        var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List<TD>));

        TextReader reader = new StringReader(tData);

        return (List<TD>)serializer.Deserialize(reader);
    }        
}

Here's your model (with invented CT and TE) using protobuf-net (yet retaining the ability to use XmlSerializer, which can be useful - in particular for migration); I humbly submit (with lots of evidence if you need it) that this is the fastest (or certainly one of the fastest) general purpose serializer in .NET.

这是使用protobuf-net(仍然保留使用XmlSerializer的能力，这对迁移非常有用)创建的模型(使用了已发明的CT和TE);我谦卑地提出(如果需要的话，有很多证据)，这是。net中最快的通用序列化器(或者肯定是最快的)。

If you need strings, just base-64 encode the binary.

如果你需要字符串，就用base-64编码二进制。

public class CT {
    [XmlElement(Order = 1)]
    public int Foo { get; set; }

public class TE {
    [XmlElement(Order = 1)]
    public int Bar { get; set; }

    [XmlElement(Order = 5)]
    public DateTime StartDate { get; set; }
    [XmlElement(Order = 6)]
    public DateTime EndDate { get; set; }

    public static byte[] Serialize(List<TD> tData) {
        using (var ms = new MemoryStream()) {
            ProtoBuf.Serializer.Serialize(ms, tData);
            return ms.ToArray();
        }            
    }

    public static List<TD> Deserialize(byte[] tData) {
        using (var ms = new MemoryStream(tData)) {
            return ProtoBuf.Serializer.Deserialize<List<TD>>(ms);

Protobuf is very very fast.

原生生物非常快。

See http://code.google.com/p/protobuf-net/wiki/Performance for in depth information concerning the performance of this system, and an implementation.

有关系统性能的深入信息和实现，请参见http://code.google.com/p/protobuf-net/wiki/Performance。

#4

Yet another serializer out there that claims to be super fast is netserializer.

另一个声称超快的序列化器是netserializer。

The data given on their site shows performance of 2x over protobuf, I have not tried this myself, but if you are evaluating various options, try this as well

他们网站上提供的数据显示了2x在protobuf上的性能，我自己还没有尝试过，但是如果你正在评估各种选项，也可以试试这个

The results surprised me; they were consistent when run multiple times:

结果让我吃惊;它们在运行多次时是一致的:

Generating 100000 arrays of data...
Test data generated.
Testing BinarySerializer...
BinaryFormatter: Serializing took 336.8392ms.
BinaryFormatter: Deserializing took 208.7527ms.

Testing ProtoBuf serializer...
ProtoBuf: Serializing took 2284.3827ms.
ProtoBuf: Deserializing took 2201.8072ms.

Testing NetSerializer serializer...
NetSerializer: Serializing took 2139.5424ms.
NetSerializer: Deserializing took 2113.7296ms.
Press any key to end.

Collecting these results, I decided to see if ProtoBuf or NetSerializer performed better with larger objects. I changed the collection count to 10,000 objects, but increased the size of the arrays to 1-10,000 instead of 1-100. The results seemed even more definitive:

在收集这些结果时，我决定看看原buf或NetSerializer是否能更好地使用较大的对象。我将集合计数更改为10,000个对象，但将数组的大小增加为1-10,000，而不是1-100。结果似乎更加明确:

Generating 10000 arrays of data...
Test data generated.
Testing BinarySerializer...
BinaryFormatter: Serializing took 285.8356ms.
BinaryFormatter: Deserializing took 206.0906ms.

Testing ProtoBuf serializer...
ProtoBuf: Serializing took 10693.3848ms.
ProtoBuf: Deserializing took 5988.5993ms.

Testing NetSerializer serializer...
NetSerializer: Serializing took 9017.5785ms.
NetSerializer: Deserializing took 5978.7203ms.
Press any key to end.

My conclusion, therefore, is: there may be cases where ProtoBuf and NetSerializer are well-suited to, but in terms of raw performance for at least relatively simple objects... BinaryFormatter is significantly more performant, by at least an order of magnitude.

因此，我的结论是:在某些情况下，ProtoBuf和NetSerializer是非常适合的，但就对至少相对简单的对象的原始性能而言……BinaryFormatter具有更大的性能，至少具有一个数量级。

YMMV.

YMMV。

The binary serializer included with .net should be faster that the XmlSerializer. Or another serializer for protobuf, json, ...

net中包含的二进制序列化器应该比XmlSerializer更快。或者是另一个prototype buf、json的序列化器……

But for some of them you need to add Attributes, or some other way to add metadata. For example ProtoBuf uses numeric property IDs internally, and the mapping needs to be somehow conserved by a different mechanism. Versioning isn't trivial with any serializer.

但是对于其中的一些，您需要添加属性，或者以其他方式添加元数据。例如，ProtoBuf内部使用数值属性id，映射需要通过不同的机制来保持。对任何序列化器来说，版本控制都很重要。

You can try Salar.Bois serializer which has a decent performance. Its focus is on payload size but it also offers good performance.

你可以试着发工资。有很好的性能的。它的重点是有效载荷的大小，但它也提供了良好的性能。

There are benchmarks in the Github page if you wish to see and compare the results by yourself.

I took the liberty of feeding your classes into the CGbR generator. Because it is in an early stage it doesn't support DateTime yet, so I simply replaced it with long. The generated serialization code looks like this:

我冒昧地向CGbR生成器提供了您的类。因为它还处于早期阶段，它还不支持DateTime，所以我用long替换了它。生成的序列化代码如下所示:

public int Size
{
    get 
    { 
        var size = 24;
        // Add size for collections and strings
        size += Cts == null ? 0 : Cts.Count * 4;
        size += Tes == null ? 0 : Tes.Count * 4;
        size += Code == null ? 0 : Code.Length;
        size += Message == null ? 0 : Message.Length;

        return size;              
    }
}

public byte[] ToBytes(byte[] bytes, ref int index)
{
    if (index + Size > bytes.Length)
        throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("index", "Object does not fit in array");

    // Convert Cts
    // Two bytes length information for each dimension
    GeneratorByteConverter.Include((ushort)(Cts == null ? 0 : Cts.Count), bytes, ref index);
    if (Cts != null)
    {
        for(var i = 0; i < Cts.Count; i++)
        {
            var value = Cts[i];
            value.ToBytes(bytes, ref index);
        }
    }
    // Convert Tes
    // Two bytes length information for each dimension
    GeneratorByteConverter.Include((ushort)(Tes == null ? 0 : Tes.Count), bytes, ref index);
    if (Tes != null)
    {
        for(var i = 0; i < Tes.Count; i++)
        {
            var value = Tes[i];
            value.ToBytes(bytes, ref index);
        }
    }
    // Convert Code
    GeneratorByteConverter.Include(Code, bytes, ref index);
    // Convert Message
    GeneratorByteConverter.Include(Message, bytes, ref index);
    // Convert StartDate
    GeneratorByteConverter.Include(StartDate.ToBinary(), bytes, ref index);
    // Convert EndDate
    GeneratorByteConverter.Include(EndDate.ToBinary(), bytes, ref index);
    return bytes;
}

public Td FromBytes(byte[] bytes, ref int index)
{
    // Read Cts
    var ctsLength = GeneratorByteConverter.ToUInt16(bytes, ref index);
    var tempCts = new List<Ct>(ctsLength);
    for (var i = 0; i < ctsLength; i++)
    {
        var value = new Ct().FromBytes(bytes, ref index);
        tempCts.Add(value);
    }
    Cts = tempCts;
    // Read Tes
    var tesLength = GeneratorByteConverter.ToUInt16(bytes, ref index);
    var tempTes = new List<Te>(tesLength);
    for (var i = 0; i < tesLength; i++)
    {
        var value = new Te().FromBytes(bytes, ref index);
        tempTes.Add(value);
    }
    Tes = tempTes;
    // Read Code
    Code = GeneratorByteConverter.GetString(bytes, ref index);
    // Read Message
    Message = GeneratorByteConverter.GetString(bytes, ref index);
    // Read StartDate
    StartDate = DateTime.FromBinary(GeneratorByteConverter.ToInt64(bytes, ref index));
    // Read EndDate
    EndDate = DateTime.FromBinary(GeneratorByteConverter.ToInt64(bytes, ref index));

    return this;
}

I created a list of sample objects like this:

我创建了一个示例对象列表，如下所示:

var objects = new List<Td>();
for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
{
    var obj = new Td
    {
        Message = "Hello my friend",
        Code = "Some code that can be put here",
        StartDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-7),
        EndDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(2),
        Cts = new List<Ct>(),
        Tes = new List<Te>()
    };
    for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++)
    {
        obj.Cts.Add(new Ct { Foo = i * j });
        obj.Tes.Add(new Te { Bar = i + j });
    }
    objects.Add(obj);
}

Results on my machine in Release build:

在我的机器上发布构建的结果:

var watch = new Stopwatch();
watch.Start();
var bytes = BinarySerializer.SerializeMany(objects);
watch.Stop();

Size: 149000 bytes

大小:149000字节

Time: 2.059ms 3.13ms

时间:2.059,3.13 ms

Edit: Starting with CGbR 0.4.3 the binary serializer supports DateTime. Unfortunately the DateTime.ToBinary method is insanely slow. I will replace it with somehting faster soon.

编辑:从CGbR 0.4.3开始，二进制序列化器支持DateTime。不幸的是,DateTime。ToBinary method则太慢。我很快就会用某样东西代替它。

Edit2: When using UTC DateTime by invoking ToUniversalTime() the performance is restored and clocks in at 1.669ms.

Edit2:通过调用ToUniversalTime()使用UTC DateTime时，性能将恢复，时钟将在1.669ms。
