Too many normalize iterations

[SergeyMilegov]

Just imagine.
I have 50 custom normalizers.
I have api action which returns me 1000 translations (key => value).
The Api Platform try to normalize every value.
So we have 50000 useless iterations. What for?
Make ability to disable normalization for scalar attributes please.

Can't you create your own CollectionNormalizer that override ours? Then you apply the patch from #2029 and you're good to go? :)

How does it help another people?

The problem is potentially I have api action which returns me 1000 translations (key => value)., can't you filter at this level ?

The 1000 translations are not attributes on the object, right? If the key-value pairs are in a PHP array, it should just be 1 call. Or ideally in a Map, and we should make sure that it's well supported...

[SergeyMilegov]

If the key-value pairs are in a PHP array, it should just be 1 call.

Yes it is array with (key-value). And api platform tries to normalize every value.

Okay, that sounds bad.
