Struct Piled<T>

Represents a PilePointer scoped by PileID. PileID uniquelly identifies the pile on the pointed-to machine. Piled is used for deferred load/deserialization from pile. This is a useful optimization technique for tree serialization, on deserialization Piled is returned, without having to deserialize the whole sub-graph of objects. Upon the first access to Pile.Value the Get from pile takes place transparently. When writing to pile, the Piled instance is written as a separate Pile entity with a distinct pointer
