More background on the long paths: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/jeremykuhne https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/jeremykuhne There's some nice small Async enhancements in this patch too, such as improvements to Output Caching (which isn't available in ASP.NET Core, although Response Caching to set headers for proxies is). It's good to see MS are still updating .NET Framework as I think .NET Core needs a bit more time before it's suitable for enterprise style applications. Patches are coming soon though: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2016/07/15/net-core-roadmap https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2016/07/15/net-core-... edit: More info on Response Caching: https://docs.asp.net/en/latest/performance/caching/response.html https://docs.asp.net/en/latest/performance/caching/response.... Shameless plug: I've written about Response Caching in my book on ASP.NET Core (https://unop.uk/book https://unop.uk/book).
