oh, i've said about ByteString i/o speed because it was what Chad
asked. but actually he will probably need just to (de)serialize data
and best speeds here i've seen is 40-50 mb/s on my box. when going to
(de)serialization my lib reads/writes each byte individually and it's
the reason why it should be slower than Data.Binary
