Which is better among Serializable and Externalizable? I have experienced Externalizable is slower than Serializable. Can somebody help me with this?

AFAIK, by default Ignite will not be using Serializable but will be marshalling with BinaryMarshaller. And that may be faster than Externalizable. Consider not having Externalizable unless it is explicitly needed.
