Entity Framework Core 10 is a powerful ORM, but performance bottlenecks often appear when writing complex LINQ queries. This session dives deep into optimizing EF Core for speed and scalability while maintaining developer productivity.
We’ll explore:

• How to write efficient LINQ queries

• Reducing database round-trips

• Common performance pitfalls and how to avoid them

• Compiled queries, projections, and query plans

• Connection pooling strategies

• Live demos, benchmarks, and practical examples

• Q&A session

By the end of the talk, attendees will be equipped to significantly improve the performance of EF Core in APIs, background jobs, and high-volume systems.
