i would agree that serialize isn't good for huge arrays, yes, but if you're
considering databases, why not use sessions?

It's possible (with serialize), but not desirable if the array can become
big (which is easy with multidim. arrays). Better:
$ArrayS = serialize ($TheArray);
$AKey = md5 ($ArrayS);
// insert into database (key: $AKey, value: $ArrayS)
$Url = $baseurl . "?key=$AKey"
plus the matching reading code
