Bing runs on .NET Core 2.1
summary
Bing.com migrates its millions-of-lines C# codebase to .NET Core 2.1 and measures a 34% improvement in end-to-end performance while serving thousands of queries per second. Startup and working-set drops come from ready-to-run images (AOT-like precompilation), CPU wins come from vectorization and devirtualization patches landed via public GitHub PRs, and deployment agility comes from shipping self-contained apps so the runtime rides with the app — the team flips a NuGet change and pushes 2.1 to production within two days.
