F# High Performance. Increase your F# programming productivity and focus on performance optimization with best practices, expert techniques, and more

F# is a functional programming language and is used in enterprise applications that demand high performance. It has its own unique trait: it is a functional programming language and has OOP support at the same time.This book will help you make F# applications run faster with examples you can easily break down and take into your own work.

• You will be able to assess the performance of the program and identify bottlenecks.

Beginning with a gentle overview of concurrency features in F#, you will get to know the advanced topics of concurrency optimizations in F#, such as F# message passing agent of MailboxProcessor and further interoperation with .NET TPL. Based on this knowledge, you will be able to enhance the performance optimizations when implementing and using other F# language features.The book also covers optimization techniques by using F# best practices and F# libraries.

• You will learn how the concepts of concurrency and parallel programming will help in improving the performance.

• Finally, you will be able to test their applications to achieve scalability.

With this, you would be able to take advantage of multi-core processors and track memory leaks, root causes, and CPU issues.
