Reflection in .NET carries a performance stigma, but newer versions may change that perception. Caching and precomputation can significantly reduce the performance gap in sensitive contexts. The results suggest reflection can be a reasonable choice when clarity and maintainability outweigh minor speed losses. This isn’t a green light for overuse, but a reminder that assumptions about performance often don’t hold when newer runtime optimizations are in play. Code clarity and long-term maintenance can benefit when patterns are chosen with actual data, not folklore. Choosing the right tool means balancing measurable facts with team understanding — not just code efficiency. #CSharp #DotNet #Programming #SoftwareDevelopment

Have been using a home-brewed ReflectionCache since 2010.
