cannam@62 5 Cap'n Proto is an insanely fast data interchange format and capability-based
cannam@62 6 RPC system. Think JSON, except binary. Or think of Google's Protocol Buffers
cannam@62 7 (http://protobuf.googlecode.com), except faster. In fact, in benchmarks,
cannam@62 8 Cap'n Proto is INFINITY TIMES faster than Protocol Buffers.

cannam@62 14 WARNING: Cap'n Proto requires a modern compiler. See the above link for
cannam@62 15 detailed requirements.

cannam@62 17 To build and install (from a release package), simply do:
cannam@62 18 ./configure
cannam@62 19 make -j4 check
cannam@62 20 sudo make install
cannam@62 21
cannam@62 22 The -j4 allows the build to use up to four processor cores instead of one.
cannam@62 23 You can increase this number if you have more cores. Specifying "check"
cannam@62 24 says to run tests in addition to building. This can be omitted to make the
cannam@62 25 build slightly faster, but running tests and reporting failures back to the
cannam@62 26 developers helps us out!
