I’m the author of ASP.NET Core 2 High Performance, a book about creating fast, scalable, and high performance web applications with ASP.NET Core 2 (an open-source and cross-platform framework from Microsoft - they dropped the “Core” branding from .NET 5 onwards but it is the same open product, .NET 6 is effectively .NET Core 5).
Although many of the examples focus on ASP.NET Core 2 and C# 6 / 7, it is also a big collection of general tips and experience applicable to making web apps perform well with any language or framework. It covers image formats, compression, architecture, networks, cloud hosting and even a little bit of team culture.
