Using RyuJIT, the next generation JIT compiler for .NET

RyuJIT is the next generation Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler for .NET. It uses a high-performance JIT architecture, focused on high throughput JIT compilation. It is much faster than the existing JIT64 64-bit JIT that has been used for the last 10 years.  Before  the 32-bit JIT compiler was a lot faster than the 64-bit version making it sometimes better to compile and run your .NET application in 32-bit.

With the introduction of RyuJIT this gap is finally closed, making it easier to exclusively target 64-bit architectures or migrate workloads from 32- to 64-bit.

What should I do to enable RyuJIT?

The answer is simple; nothing Smile! If you have .NET Framework 4.6 installed, RyuJIT will be enabled for all 64-bit processes running on top of it. Your app will run in a 64-bit process if it is compiled as 64-bit or AnyCPU (although not as Prefer 32-bit), and run on a 64-bit operating system. RyuJIT is similarly integrated into .NET Core, as the 64-bit JIT.

If your servers are 64-bit(they probably are), and your applications are still using 32-bit, it’s time to do some benchmarking and maybe make the switch to 64-bit all the way!

Kubernetes–Limit your environmental impact

Reducing the carbon footprint and CO2 emission of our (cloud) workloads, is a responsibility of all of us. If you are running a Kubernetes cluster, have a look at Kube-Green . kube-green is a simple Kubernetes operator that automatically shuts down (some of) your pods when you don't need them. A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t

DevToys–A swiss army knife for developers

As a developer there are a lot of small tasks you need to do as part of your coding, debugging and testing activities.  DevToys is an offline windows app that tries to help you with these tasks. Instead of using different websites you get a fully offline experience offering help for a large list of tasks. Many tools are available. Here is the current list: Converters JSON <> YAML Timestamp Number Base Cron Parser Encoders / Decoders HTML URL Base64 Text & Image GZip JWT Decoder Formatters JSON SQL XML Generators Hash (MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) UUID 1 and 4 Lorem Ipsum Checksum Text Escape / Unescape Inspector & Case Converter Regex Tester Text Comparer XML Validator Markdown Preview Graphic Color B
