It&#39;s been a long time since I looked at protobuf&#xA;(and will have to dig into it soon), but I seem to recall it doesn&#39;t&#xA;have any of the determinism properties you guys just said.  It is&#xA;intended to allow you to skip details of the on-the-wire representations&#xA;and just send a bunch of named fields between systems.  I thought there&#xA;was no guarantee that two identical protobuf structures will get&#xA;serialized identically...?&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;On 01/19/2015 02:57 PM, Richard Brady wrote:&#xA;&gt; Thanks guys, great answers. &#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; The design choice certainly makes a lot more sense now regardless of&#xA;&gt; whether one agrees with it or not.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; Regards,&#xA;&gt; Richard&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------&#xA;&gt; New Year.
