Re: [logback-dev] Protobuf

Hello Maarten, It's interesting to learn that protobuf is faster than plain old java serialization. Thanks. How about the size of the stored data? How many bytes does a logging event use on average? Maarten Bosteels wrote:

Hi,

No objections at all.

Looking at my .proto file it's indeed pretty obvious that CallerData and StackTraceElement are quite similar :-) http://code.google.com/p/firewood/source/browse/trunk/compare-formats/src/ma...

I've done some benchmarking with protobuf (using the Corpus), and it seems to be at least 4 times faster than Java serialization. Will soon post the results and the code.

regards, Maarten
