In this post, I will continue my journey into writing high-performance C# and .NET Core code by taking a look at a benchmarking challenge I recently encountered. While writing some sample code for an upcoming talk, I wanted to create a demo based on a scenario that I’d experienced at work. In that scenario, I […]

Creating Strings with No Allocation Overhead Using String.Create Writing High-Performance C# and .NET Code: Part 4
In this post, I’ll continue my series about writing high-performance C# and .NET code. This time, I will focus on a new(ish) method available on the String type – String.Create. First introduced in .NET Core 2.1, this method is currently planned for inclusion as part of .NET Standard 2.1 once that is released. What Does […]
An Introduction to Optimising Code Using Span<T> Writing High-Performance C# and .NET Code: Part 3
This post continues my series about writing high-performance C# code. In this post, we’ll continue from the last two posts by introducing the Span<T> type and refactor some existing code by converting it to a Span-based version. We’ll use Benchmark.NET to compare the methods and validate whether our changes have improved the code. If you […]
Motivations for Writing High-Performance C# Code Writing High-Performance C# and .NET Code: Part 1
This post marks the beginning of what I expect will be a fairly long series of performance related posts. I’ll use this post as of a table of contents for accessing those future posts as well as to begin the series by discussing my personal motivations for learning more about writing high-performance C# code. I’m […]
