Description

Hello,

I'm Leonid Ganeline. We maintain an open multi-language serializer benchmark:

https://github.com/leo-gan/GLD.SerializerBenchmark

Your library is included in the suite (language: rust, harness name: bitcode).
Implementation we use:

https://github.com/leo-gan/GLD.SerializerBenchmark/blob/master/rust/src/serializers/binary_serde.rs

We would value a short review of whether our measurement is fair and idiomatic:

  1. Does our call pattern match how you recommend using the library in performance-sensitive code?
  2. Should we change options, encoder/decoder reuse, types, or buffer handling?
  3. Is there a better API (or a second entry point worth a separate row in the suite)?

Concrete notes or a small PR against that wrapper would help a lot. We are happy to credit you in the docs.

The repo also includes a short Serialization course (101–401). If something important about your design is easy to misstate, a pointer is welcome—we can update the docs ourselves.

Thank you for maintaining this library.

Best regards,
Leonid Ganeline

  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start with rust/src/serializers/binary_serde.rs in the linked GLD.SerializerBenchmark repository and compare its call pattern with bitcode's recommended performance-sensitive usage. Review encoder/decoder reuse, options, types, and buffer handling, then provide concrete fairness notes or a small wrapper PR. Done means the benchmark methodology is reviewed and any important design guidance is identified for the course documentation.
