I agree.

It's not a good idea to re-introduce reflection into the per-object path
of serialization. That slows it down enormously.

I'd like to propose something like the attached patch. It removes the
need to the constructor lookuk for every object.

The patch doesn't include the native side, because I haven't written
that (don't need it for IKVM) but I'm happy to write it if someone else
will test it.
