  Extension igbinary. 

igbinary is a drop in replacement for the standard php serializer. Instead of time and space consuming textual representation, igbinary stores php data structures in compact binary form.

.. code-block:: php
   
   <?php
   	$serialized = igbinary_serialize($variable);
   	$unserialized = igbinary_unserialize($serialized);
   ?>
