ceras
Ceras is a binary serializer, inspired by MsgPack and intended to not only fix the pain-points I've experienced using it, but also add a lot of extra features like: Support for reference loops (objects referencing each other), large/complicated inheritance chains, zero allocations and pooling to avoid GC pressure, ability to serialize an object graph into multiple "fragments" (aka external objects), ... and much more checkout the github page for a full list!
