Description:
------------
I have objects that have child objects that have child
objects. All these objects have references to their parent
object (dually linked). When trying to clone these objects
using the serialize/deserialize clone, it causes significant
slow-downs and will sometimes timeout.

I've done some quick tests, and var_export / eval is significantly faster for very large object hierarchies, but much slower for small objects.
It's impractical to get the size of the object/hierarchy beforehand, so I don't see any realistic solution.
I'll close the bug, but keep my ears open. Thanks for the report.
