Serializer should be configurable

from 💬 PHP 8.1 serializer vs igbinary serializer speed and memory usage Active

We run PHP 8.1. We switched a file based cache from serialize to igbinary and the file size was reduced by aprox. 90%. So this was a massive improvement.

This works well.
I am able to replace serializer.

This is a really good idea. I tried out the serialization.igbinary_gz service from the igbinary module and it reduced my cache folder to 25.18% of the original size.

However this took some figuring our since the igbinary module is still experimental and doesn't have much documentation. It's README consists mostly of TODOs.

Patch adds instructions on how to set it up, and does some small documentation updates.

Thanks!
