Introduce a unified Test_Benchmark_Results directory for all test, benchmark, and coverage artifacts, with MSBuild properties and MSTest runsettings for consistent output. Update .gitignore to exclude results. Refactor BenchmarkSuite1 to ensure all logs and artifacts are stored in versioned subfolders, and add logic for coverage file management.
Majorly optimize AcBinaryDeserializer: reuse existing nested objects and collections during deserialization, add PopulateListOptimized for in-place list updates, and use String.Create for efficient UTF8 decoding. Extend property metadata to track complex/collection types. Update MessagePack and BenchmarkDotNetDiagnosers package versions. Remove obsolete benchmark-report.html.
- Add typed property accessors to avoid boxing and speed up value type serialization
- Implement bulk array writers for primitives (int, long, double, etc.) for efficient, zero-copy serialization
- Add zero-copy IBufferWriter serialization and size estimation methods
- Refactor array/dictionary serialization for fast paths and memory efficiency
- Improve context pool memory management and reduce initial dictionary/set capacities
- Fix benchmark to avoid state accumulation between runs
- Downgrade MessagePack dependency for compatibility
- Updated all projects to use `Newtonsoft.Json` v13.0.3 for consistency.
- Introduced `HybridReferenceResolver` for semantic and numeric ID handling.
- Refactored `SerializeObjectExtensions` to support deep JSON merging.
- Simplified `IId<T>` interface by removing `IEquatable<T>` constraint.
- Improved `AcSignalRDataSource` with robust `AddRange` and `CopyTo` methods.
- Added `JsonExtensionTests` for deep hierarchy, reference, and edge cases.
- Implemented `UnifiedMergeContractResolver` for custom JSON behavior.
- Optimized type/property caching with `TypeCache` and `CachedPropertyInfo`.
- Enhanced SignalR integration to fix primitive array deserialization issues.
- Introduced `JsonNoMergeCollection` attribute for replace-only collections.
- Added test DTOs and `TestDataFactory` for real-world scenario simulations.
- Improved performance with `ConcurrentDictionary` and `ObjectPool`.
- Fixed `$id`/`$ref` handling for non-semantic references and arrays.
