story for Glimpse in ASP.NET 5?\u00a0 Anthony explained that the changing versions of ASP.NET are introducing complexities for the team to analyze and attempt to maintain compatibility with.\u00a0 They don&#8217;t yet have an answer and are working through this design with the ASP.NET team.<\/p>\n<p>Damian next discussed performance, as we love to hear about in these discussions.\u00a0 Damian recounted a twitter discussion with <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kellabyte\">Kelly Sommers<\/a> about kestrel performance on Linux.\u00a0 The ASP.NET team has not focused on performance of the\u00a0 kestrel web server on Linux and after replicating Kelly&#8217;s configuration on the team&#8217;s performance testing rig, they have identified a number of performance issues and started to remedy them.\u00a0 New hardware has arrived to help test and diagnose these issues, and the team is actively working on improving kestrel web server performance on Linux.<\/p>\n<p>Anthony asked Damian if the servers were in the building, and Damian pointed just outside the conference room door at the hardware.\u00a0 Scott followed up by asking if we could go on a tour in a future standup to show the performance lab.\u00a0 Damian agreed and indicated that some followers on Twitter asked if the performance testing could be broadcast with Twitch or some mobile camera.\u00a0 The guys are going to plan for a tour in a future standup.<\/p>\n<p>Scott wrapped by asking if the standup could be held next week at the same time as this week: 15:00UTC.\u00a0 That looks like the time we will start on July 21st.<\/p>\n<h3>Links of the week:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The announcement <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.msdn.com\/b\/webdev\/archive\/2015\/07\/14\/a-glimpse-into-the-future-of-web-development-tools.aspx\">blog post introducing Nik and Anthony<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/packagesearch.azurewebsites.net\/\">Reverse Package Search<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/condrong\">Glenn Condron<\/a>\u00a0 http:\/\/packagesearch.azurewebsites.net\n<ul>\n<li>Damian chimed in that this site was built to help locate NuGet packages that provide features from the .NET 4.x base-class-library.\u00a0 In particular the reflection APIs have changed and you will want to use this resource for help.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Summary<\/h3>\n<p>Damian hopes to have the roadmap published on the <a href=\"http:\/\/github.com\/aspnet\/home\">ASP.NET GitHub Home repository<\/a>.\u00a0 Tune in next week for official details about the planned release dates and features.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the next in a series of blog posts that will cover the topics discussed in the ASP.NET Community Standup.\u00a0 The community standup is a short video-based discussion with some of the leaders of the ASP.NET development teams covering the accomplishments of the team on the new ASP.NET 5 framework over the previous week.\u00a0 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":405,"featured_media":58792,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[197],"tags":[7501],"class_list":["post-5771","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-aspnet","tag-communitystandup"],"acf":[],"blog_post_summary":"<p>This is the next in a series of blog posts that will cover the topics discussed in the ASP.NET Community Standup.\u00a0 The community standup is a short video-based discussion with some of the leaders of the ASP.NET development teams covering the accomplishments of the team on the new ASP.NET 5 framework over the previous week.\u00a0 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5771","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/405"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5771"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5771\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/58792"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5771"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5771"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5771"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
