I had one experimented with binary serialization of an ArrayList of
structs (each struct mostly contains strings). Strangely enough, it
did not run as fast as custom XML storage (latter was nothing fancy,
but did not use normal serialization). I was not pressed to get
runtime optimized at the time, so I just went with XML.
The situation has shifted, and I have to figure out the *fastest
possible* way to save and reload that ArrayList. I remember seeing
something on optimizing serialization but could not locate it. Are
there recommended approaches? (again with speed as the major concern)
