.NET 9 LINQ Performance Improvements
Benchmark comparisons between .NET 8 and .NET 9 show that certain LINQ queries execute up to 30% faster, depending on the dataset and query complexity. These improvements are particularly impactful for performance-critical applications, where even small gains can add up to substantial boosts.
