EF Core 6: Fulfilling the Bucket List
summary
EF Core 6 claims big wins: query execution is 31% faster with many API tweaks and overall app benchmarks show 70% faster on TechEmpower when paired with .NET 6. It adds precompiled models for startup (a complex demo drops model build from 1.8s to 157ms), connection/command pooling and opt‑out thread‑safety checks, and focuses on non‑tracking query speed. DevOps gets migrations bundle exe/self-contained that runs idempotently, and the provider adds temporal table support with AS OF queries and bulk configure‑conventions for value conversions.
