Does anyone know a benchmark between Parcelable and KotlinX Serialization ProtoBuffs? Does it make sense to use KxS ProtoBufs as a replacement for Parcelables? 🤔

Probably makes most sense to make a custom format for Parcelable.

Not really related. I don’t plan to reuse the format (Data Transfer Object) - what I’m looking for is the performance implication of KxS ProtoBuff.

I do see value in having a single @Serializable API surface (KxS Serialization) to handle all serializations operations in the application and to remove plugins from my build (Parcelize).
