Hi Sezhman,

When you say you have used it extensively, what way?  Are you serializing
to files then reading these back?  Are you serializing huge data resources?
Where is it slow - is it only slow between the caller/called service?  Or
is this a single machine application.  Are you saying that when you call
Serialize that it takes too long?  There are some XML patterns that
serialize poorly, but these are not that common to see.  Are you using
custom serialization?

It's such a broad statement... without some breakdown, it's hard to answer
your question why.  There is a perf hit in converting binary data to
strings, adding in angle brackets, etc.  There can be hardware conditions
that exacerbate this - such as low memory, slow disks, slow connections,
high latency, slow processors... how well does it behave on YOUR machines?

Dear All,
I have done a project and delivered successfully. My customer is reporting
that the application is very slow. I have used XMLSerializer extensively in
my C# code. Its because of this, the application is too slow. How to make
it
fast??.

Thanks From,
