## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 77/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 100, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 4109, "days_push": 0, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases, no_license
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
A collection of benchmark applications and Docker images for measuring ASP.NET Core performance, including TechEmpower Web Framework Benchmarks scenarios. It is run by the ASP.NET team as a continuous benchmarking effort using Microsoft Crank.

## Use cases
- benchmark asp.net core web framework performance
- run techempower benchmark scenarios locally
- set up continuous performance benchmarking pipelines
- compare http server throughput across dotnet versions
- load test asp.net core endpoints with crank

## When to choose
- you need official ASP.NET Core performance baselines
- you want to reproduce TechEmpower scenarios for .NET
- you are setting up continuous benchmarking with Crank

## When to avoid
- you need benchmarks for non-.NET web frameworks
- you want simple micro-benchmarks rather than full HTTP scenarios

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: benchmarking, http-server, web-framework
- domain: web-development, performance, backend
- platform: dotnet, cloud, windows
- tags: aspnet-core, techempower, crank, continuous-benchmarking, csharp, docker, linux
