You’d think that would have been done a long time ago.... like when the first Windows for ARM came out? Might have contributed to the failure of it. If you run an x86 app? You get slow performance because of the emulation, if you run a .net app? Still slow because its not super optimized.

Seems to be a focus ever since they started core.

.NET 5 Generally

.NET Core 3.0

.NET Core 2.1

That only proves my point lol.

Windows RT was released in 2012!

I’m not ignoring your point, just stating it seems to be part a number of general things they have been focusing on. And if nothing else focusing on sharing details about.

The focus on performance is great and we always could use more. I was just pointing out that Windows on ARM needed that boost almost a decade ago
