Not to dissuade from MsgPack having a more convenient API to use,
but MsgPack is surprisingly worse than Protocol Buffers. Despite their
website claims, unfortunately the MsgPack projects testing procedure is
flawed. This has previously been raised on the list.
After looking at http://bsonspec.org/#/specification I'm not sure how
YouTube is finding BSON to be faster. It looks like a 1st generation
format like TIBCO's forms and not second generation qforms (using a
dictionary), or third generation rforms (using dynamic dictionaries).
More development appears to be towards convenience as hardware improvements
make bit tweaking less productive.
