# ADR-0002 - Avoid using Java serialization

## Date

2012-12-01

## Context

In Gradle we often need to serialize in-memory objects for caching, or to transmit them across process barriers, etc.
Java serialization is one way to implement this, however, despite its simplicity of implementation, it has several drawbacks:

- **Performance:**
Java's built-in serialization mechanism is often slower compared to other serialization solutions.

    Keep in mind that dataclasses can't do everything Pydantic models can do.

    So, you might still need to use Pydantic models.

    But if you have a bunch of dataclasses laying around, this is a nice trick to use them to power a web API using FastAPI. 🤓

## Dataclasses in `response_model`

    uniqueEntries.addAll(ms.entrySet());
    assertEquals(3, uniqueEntries.size());
  }

  // Wrapper of EnumMultiset factory methods, because we need to skip create(Class).
  // create(Enum1.class) is equal to create(Enum2.class) but testEquals() expects otherwise.
  // For the same reason, we need to skip create(Iterable, Class).
  private static class EnumMultisetFactory {

      private fun evictToRecoverBytes(bytesToRecover: Int): Int {
        var bytesToRecover = bytesToRecover
        var entriesToEvict = 0
        if (bytesToRecover > 0) {
          // determine how many headers need to be evicted.
          var j = dynamicTable.size - 1
          while (j >= nextHeaderIndex && bytesToRecover > 0) {
            val toEvict = dynamicTable[j]!!
            bytesToRecover -= toEvict.hpackSize

For distributed MinIO deployments, specify the *same* `MINIO_KMS_SECRET_KEY` for each MinIO server process.

At any point in time you can switch from `MINIO_KMS_SECRET_KEY` to a full KMS
deployment. You just need to import the generated key into KES - for example via
the KES CLI once you have successfully setup KES:

```sh
kes key create my-minio-key OSMM+vkKUTCvQs9YL/CVMIMt43HFhkUpqJxTmGl6rYw=
```

            // to get the combined scope. A base declared member scope with Java enhancement doesn't exist, unfortunately.
            DeclaredMemberScopeKind.COMBINED -> {
                // The static scope contains inner classes, so we need to exclude them from the non-static scope to avoid duplicates.

And then you can set headers in that *temporal* response object.

```Python hl_lines="1  7-8"
{!../../../docs_src/response_headers/tutorial002.py!}
```

And then you can return any object you need, as you normally would (a `dict`, a database model, etc).

And if you declared a `response_model`, it will still be used to filter and convert the object you returned.

            Some tests need reflective access to the internals of these packages. It is only the
