What tradeoffs did you make compared to the original?
2 comments

A few tradeoffs we had to make:

- As mentioned below - flatbuffers makes the startup time faster while trading off some flexibility

- Smaller code size means trading off dependency on some libraries and broader support vs writing more things from scratch more focused on the user cases people care about

Do you have performance/memory comparisons from using flatbuffer vs protobuf in TF? A quick writeup with how switching effected performance would be really interesting :)
Flatbuffers also uses less memory.
Using FlatBuffers, for one?
