Today I was made aware by Filip, a colleague of mine, about the importance of columns used in a where clause with a compound index. I decided to investigate this a bit more in detail, with proper profiling and comparisons on a large data set.

String Concatenation vs Memory Allocation

Over the years, plenty has been written about .net String vs. StringBuilder - concatenation performance Concatenating Strings Efficiently, lots of comparisons between String.Concat and StringBuilder. Today I decided to do some of my own research into the subject and contribute to the knowledge already out there. More specifically, I’ll be taking a look at the memory usage for various concatenation methods and compiler optimizations used to generate the IL.
