FlatBuffer sounds amazing. That said, when would one pick Protocol Buffer over FlatBuffer?

- viktorcode 5y agoFrom Flatbuffers spec: > Why not use Protocol Buffers, or .. ? Protocol Buffers is indeed relatively similar to FlatBuffers, with the primary difference being that FlatBuffers does not need a parsing/ unpacking step to a secondary representation before you can access data, often coupled with per-object memory allocation. The code is an order of magnitude bigger, too. Protocol Buffers has no optional text import/export.
