 This topic provides guidelines for performance best practices with ASP.NET Core.

 In this document, a hot code path is defined as a code path that is frequently called and where much of the execution time occurs. Hot code paths typically limit app scale-out and performance.

 * **Do** use ASP.NET Core's [built-in support](xref:client-side/bundling-and-minification) for bundling and minifying client assets.
 * **Do** consider other third-party tools like [Gulp](uid:client-side/bundling-and-minification#consume-bundleconfigjson-from-gulp) or [Webpack](https://webpack.js.org/) for more complex client asset management.
 
+## Compress responses

+ Reducing the size of the response usually increases the responsiveness of an app, often dramatically. One way to reduce payload sizes is to compress an app's responses. For more information, see [Response compression](xref:performance/response-compression).

 ## Use the latest ASP.NET Core release
 
 Each new release of ASP.NET includes performance improvements. Optimizations in .NET Core and ASP.NET Core mean that newer versions will outperform older versions. For example, .NET Core 2.1 added support for compiled regular expressions and benefitted from [`Span<T>`](https://msdn.microsoft.com/magazine/mt814808.aspx). ASP.NET Core 2.2 added support for HTTP/2. If performance is a priority, consider upgrading to the most current version of ASP.NET Core.

 * **Do** include logic in the app to detect and handle conditions that would cause an exception.
 * **Do** throw or catch exceptions for unusual or unexpected conditions.
