EF Core creates an internal model for entity types and their database mappings. This model is typically built once when the application starts. Starting with EF Core 6.0, it is now possible to instead build this model at compile time. This can reduce startup time by up to 67% for large models. Join us for this Community Standup, where the team will introduce compiled models and demo their use.
