Tom White commented on HADOOP-6120:
-----------------------------------

JavaSerialization was written more to demonstrate the generality of the 
abstraction (HADOOP-1986) than to be used in real-world applications, since its 
performance is considerably less than Writables (and presumably Avro). So I 
would be inclined not to add it to the default list, preferring users to 
explicitly enable it. Does this sound reasonable?
