/**
* Abstract interface implemented by Protocol Message objects.
*
* This interface is implemented by all protocol message objects. Non-lite messages additionally
* implement the Message interface, which is a subclass of MessageLite. Use MessageLite instead when
* you only need the subset of features which it supports -- namely, nothing that uses descriptors
* or reflection. You can instruct the protocol compiler to generate classes which implement only
* MessageLite, not the full Message interface, by adding the follow line to the .proto file:
*
*
* option optimize_for = LITE_RUNTIME;
*
*
* This is particularly useful on resource-constrained systems where the full protocol buffers
* runtime library is too big.
*
*
Note that on non-constrained systems (e.g. servers) when you need to link in lots of protocol
* definitions, a better way to reduce total code footprint is to use {@code optimize_for =
* CODE_SIZE}. This will make the generated code smaller while still supporting all the same
* features (at the expense of speed). {@code optimize_for = LITE_RUNTIME} is best when you only
* have a small number of message types linked into your binary, in which case the size of the
* protocol buffers runtime itself is the biggest problem.
