> The serializing cache is a better choice for most users:
> - Lower total memory usage (serialized data is usually 8x-12x smaller than "live" data in the JVM with all the overhead that involves) means you can cache more rows for a given memory footprint
> - Moving the serialized rows off-heap means you can use smaller heaps, reducing the impact of GC pauses
