Hi,
Based on feedback by Norbert Hartl, Stuart Herring and Dale Hendrichs (thank you) I improved the current STON version a bit.

Yes, using a stack is also a good idea :)
Good to see you are tacking some of the Fuel code/ideas to improve STON. It is awesome to have both, �a fast binary and text serializers :)�

to generate a structure mimicing the class hierarchy, with objects for all classes, about 7000 in my image and all methods, about 64000 in my image, with super/subclass and method owner links to create cycles. This results in a 7 Mb .ston file.
The normal code, serializes this in 28 seconds and materializes it in 11.5 seconds.
The 'fast' versions (using ZnBuffered[Write|Read]Streams and Fuel Large Datastructures) does it in 1.1 and 3.8 seconds respectively.
New users are always welcome.
