//! Serde-path benchmarks: oxicode::serde vs bincode::serde
//!
//! Compares the serde compatibility layer of oxicode against bincode's serde layer
//! on primitives, structs, and collections.
//!
//! Both sides use `serde::Serialize` / `serde::Deserialize` — not the native
//! `Encode`/`Decode` derive macros — so the comparison isolates the serde dispatch
//! overhead from the core encoder performance.
//!
//! Compile/run:
//! ```
//! cargo bench --bench serde_bench --features serde
//! ```
//!
//! This file is gated behind the `serde` feature in Cargo.toml
//! (`required-features = ["serde"]`).
