是适合长期序列化的协议缓冲区吗？(is protocol buffers suitable for long term serialization?)

 我正在考虑长时间在物体上存储增量的各种方法（30年是常见的情况）。 一种选择是使用单个增量表来存储每个对象的更改。 因为增量需要存储这么长时间，所以delta表会变得非常大，所以我考虑的选项是至少将它配对一点，不要将每个delta存储为字符串。 
 
 增量表主要是存储来自.NET的原语（ int ， long ， decimal ， string等）。 delta表看起来像 
 
| RowIdentifier | FieldIdentifier | NewValue | Timestamp |
 
 协议缓冲区（protobuf-net或其他一些protobuf实现）是否适合这种长期存储？ 

I am considering various ways of storing deltas on objects for long periods of time (30 years would be the common case). One option is to have a single delta table storing changes for every object. Because the deltas need to be stored for such a long time, the delta table will grow very large, so I was considering options to at least pair it down a bit by not storing every delta as a string.
 
The delta table would primarily be storing primitives from .NET (int, long, decimal, string, etc). The delta table would look something like
 
| RowIdentifier | FieldIdentifier | NewValue | Timestamp |
 
Is protocol buffers (protobuf-net or some other protobuf implementation) suitable for such long term storage?
