Performance Considerations and Best Practices
Performance is critical in software development, influencing user satisfaction, resource utilization, and scalability. In the context of .NET development, memory management is crucial in achieving optimal performance. While the .NET runtime provides automatic memory management through its garbage collector (GC), developers must still be mindful of how their code allocates and uses memory to avoid performance bottlenecks.
Memory allocation and deallocation can be expensive operations, particularly in high-performance applications. Each allocation adds pressure to the GC, potentially leading to more frequent collections and increased application pauses. Understanding the cost of memory allocation ...
