You're like 5 years behind, .Net has been snappy for years since core released.

- alophawen 5y ago.Net != .Net Core, even though they rebranded it as such. That's just revisionist marketing
- jcelerier 5y agoWhat's a snappy .net app ? The few ones I know definitely feel slower than e.g. Qt apps
- ripley12 5y agoPaint.NET is probably the best example of a good, fast widely used .NET app.
- jcelerier 5y agoThat's the first example of "not fast" that came to my mind actually.
- ripley12 5y agoSeriously? The effort Rick puts into Paint.NET performance is unreal (check out his Twitter sometime). I've found it to be impressively fast, especially for how much functionality it has. FWIW it was only recently migrated to a modern .NET version, give the latest version a spin if you haven't already.
- filmgirlcw 5y agoAgreed. Rick’s work on Paint.NET is just so impressive.
- spaetzleesser 5y agoPaint.NET is a good example for how much effort it takes to develop a .NET app that has decent performance especially once it is a little bit complex
- oneplane 5y agoJust because it's impressive doesn't mean it's not slower than other systems. It's not mutually exclusive.
- vxNsr 5y agoOdd, I've been using it for the better part of a decade when GIMP is too much and I've never felt like it was slow.
- fistynuts 5y agoIndeed, if anything is slow, it's GIMP.
- boznz 5y agoMore like hardware is now hiding the .Nets overheads
- zip1234 5y agoNo, both have gotten much faster. This is just one release of performance improvements: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/performance-improvements-in-net-6/ https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/performance-improvemen... It is worth noting that WPF can run on this latest version of .NET
- spaetzleesser 5y ago“Snappy” is subjective. It definitely has improved But it’s still far away from what you could do with Win32 or MFC.
