tinydb-serialization - if I use it what impact does it have on performance?

[Damien455]

HI, if I use tinydb-serialization and it's DateTime object ability in my database does it only have an impact on performance if I run a query on a field containing a DateTime object i.e. if a run a search on a "name" would it just be as quick if I had not used the extention?

Many Thanks

Hey @Damien455, that's really hard to answer for all possible cases. It depends on the data you're processing and how many fields have fields that contain DateTime objects. I guess you'd have to compare performance with and without serialization to see how big the performance impact is.
