bufV

bufV is a library for efficient, zero-copy binary serialization and deserialization. It is designed to provide a high-performance alternative to traditional serialization methods, particularly in scenarios where data is frequently transferred or processed. The library focuses on minimizing memory allocations and data copying, which can be significant bottlenecks in performance-critical applications.

At its core, bufV utilizes a memory-efficient approach that allows data to be read directly from its serialized form without the need for intermediate copying. This is achieved through techniques such as memory mapping and careful data layout. The library supports a range of primitive data types and complex structures, enabling it to handle diverse serialization needs.

bufV's design emphasizes simplicity and ease of use. It provides straightforward APIs for both encoding (serializing) and decoding (deserializing) data. This allows developers to integrate bufV into their projects with minimal effort. The library is often employed in networking applications, inter-process communication, and data storage solutions where performance is a key consideration. Its focus on zero-copy principles contributes to reduced CPU overhead and improved throughput.
