Understanding the cost of C# delegates

Delegates are widely used in C# (and .NET, in general). Either as event handlers, callbacks, or as logic to be used by other code (as in LINQ ). Despite their wide usage, it’s not always obvious to the developer what delegate instantiation will look like. In this post, I’m going to show various usages of delegates and what code they generate so that you can see the costs associated with using them in your code. Explicit instantiation Throughout the evolution of the C# language, delegate invocation has evolved with new patterns without breaking the previously existing patterns. Initially (versions 1.0 and 1.2), the only instantiation pattern available was the explicit invocation of the delegate type constructor with a method group: delegate void D(int x); class C { public static void M1(int i) {...} public void M2(int i) {...} } class Test { static void Main() { D cd1 = new D(C.M1); // static method C t = new C(); D cd2 = new D(t.M2); ...

Performance Improvements in .NET 6

Four years ago, around the time .NET Core 2.0 was being released, I wrote Performance Improvements in .NET Core to highlight the quantity and quality of performance improvements finding their way into .NET. With its very positive reception, I did so again a year later with Performance Improvements in .NET Core 2.1 , and an annual tradition was born. Then came Performance Improvements in .NET Core 3.0 , followed by Performance Improvements in .NET 5 . Which brings us to today. The dotnet/runtime repository is the home of .NET’s runtimes, runtime hosts, and core libraries. Since its main branch forked a year or so ago to be for .NET 6, there have been over 6500 merged PRs (pull requests) into the branch for the release, and that’s excluding automated PRs from bots that do things like flow dependency version updates between repos (not to discount the bots’ contributions; after all, they’ve actually received interview offers by email from recruiters who just possibly weren’t being parti...
