10x sounds great until you look at this as an absolute value. It's 10 seconds. That would be huge if it were a a runtime cost, but this is a one time cost at compile time, and this build will be cached unless you're upgrading serde (or its dependencies). The value of that 10 seconds compared to the cost is a faustian bargain.
