Or the CI example were test failures are fueled out.

The only problem could be that during the serialization, the traversed graph to serialize may be to big if it reaches to the display and all its world and related objects. Also, you may arrive to places that change so frequently like mouse position etc... This normally happens when you end up serializing the whole UI. In this case, it is likely the graph will change while you are serializing it...so you will be screw. Of course, if can hook a bit and cut the graph...but you should know in which place of your morph to cut. > 2.
