Sharing data between AppDomains

Question

I have a process that can have multiple AppDomains. Each AppDomain collect some statistics. After a specified time, I want to accumulate these statistic and save them into a

I tend to say just use remoting. Writing the data to a file requires serialization, too. Serialization seems to be almost unavoidable what ever technology you use. You have to transfer data from one application domain to another using some channel and you will have to serialize the data in order to get it through the channel.

The only way to avoid serialization seems to be using shared memory so that both application domains can access the data without ever going through a channel. Even deep cloning the data from one application domain's memory into the other's memory is at its core nothing more then a binary serialization (where the result is not necessarily stored in consecutive memory locations).
