| Cap'n Proto - Insanely Fast Data Serialization Format |

| |
| Cap'n Proto is an insanely fast data interchange format and capability-based |
| RPC system. Think JSON, except binary. Or think of Google's Protocol Buffers |
| (http://protobuf.googlecode.com), except faster. In fact, in benchmarks, |
| Cap'n Proto is INFINITY TIMES faster than Protocol Buffers. |
| |
| Full installation and usage instructions and other documentation are maintained |
| on the Cap'n Proto web site: |
| http://kentonv.github.io/capnproto/install.html |
| |
| WARNING: Cap'n Proto requires a modern compiler. See the above link for |
| detailed requirements. |
| |
| To build and install (from a release package), simply do: |
| ./configure |
| make -j4 check |
| sudo make install |
| |
| The -j4 allows the build to use up to four processor cores instead of one. |
| You can increase this number if you have more cores. Specifying "check" |
| says to run tests in addition to building. This can be omitted to make the |
| build slightly faster, but running tests and reporting failures back to the |
| developers helps us out! |
