Insightful. Many thanks.

Flat buffers is know to bloat client code. Was any trick used to mitigate that?

I guess code bloat is proportional to schema complexity, and performance improvement is proportional to volume, so in ad blocker with many large block lists the latter dominates.

The biggest improvement for us was deduplication by using generators an referencing already emitted objects. Don't run flatc on a JSON, it doesn't do that.
