Igor Sapego commented on IGNITE-5097:
-------------------------------------
So, the max size is going to take 5 bytes then? In that case, in platforms we'd
need to reserve 5 bytes, which going to INCREASE collections/arrays size for
platforms. So, while we optimizing collections size for Java, we are going to
make it larger and slower for [de]serialization for platforms. I can't say I
like the thought.
> BinaryMarshaller should write ints in "varint" encoding where it makes sense

> Key: IGNITE-5097
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-5097
> Project: Ignite
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: general
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Vladimir Ozerov
> Assignee: Vyacheslav Daradur
> Labels: important, performance
> Fix For: 2.1
>
>
> There are a lot of places in the code where we write integers for some
> special purposes. Quite often their value will be vary small, so that
> applying "varint" format could save a lot of space at the cost of very low
> additional CPU overhead.
> Specifically:
> 1) Array/collection/map lengths
> 2) BigDecimal's (usually will save ~6 bytes)
> 3) Strings
> 4) Enum ordinals
