Question

I just want to know that creating local variables to accept the return value of function is going to hit memory usage or performance in .Net applications , especially in ASP.Net.

say

 MyObject myObject = Foo();  MyOtherObject myOtherObject = Boo();   SomeFuntion(myObject, myOtherObject); 

OR

Should I use

 MyFunction(Foo(), Boo()); 

Certainly the former usage has a better readability.. But what about the memory usage and performance?

Thanks in advance 123Developer

Answer 1

Don’t optimise prematurely; in a release build it is quite likely that the compiler will optimise these away anyway! Either way, you are just talking a tiny amount of stack space for (presumably) a few references. Either approach is fine; go with whichever is more readable.
