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.
