Implement in-agent method cache for .NET framework applications
trafficstars
Describe the story, please be clear on scope of the story.
As part of #1359 we built a prototype of how we can use an in-agent method cache to reduce the lock contention that the current AppDomain caching solution can experience. As part of this story we should do the following.
- Implement the solution from #1359
- Implement a configuration setting or environment variable that can be used to toggle the new caching strategy off and go back to the previous AppDomain caching strategy
- Ensure that the profiler tests are updated for these changes
- Run a performance test to verify that the performance is not worse
Acceptance Criteria
- There is a setting that can be changed to re-enable the AppDomain caching strategy
- By default the in-agent caching strategy will be enabled
- Performance testing verify that the performance did not decrease
- The solution applies to .NET framework applications
- netcoreapp3.1+ applications will continue to use the current .NET core reflection strategy
