How does the JIT compiler improve runtime performance in C#?

Expert C#
Quick Answer The JIT converts IL to machine code right before execution and applies hardware-specific optimizations like method inlining, dead code elimination, and CPU-tuned instructions. It may recompile hot methods (tiered compilation) with even more aggressive optimizations as the app runs.

Answer

The JIT compiler converts IL to machine code just before execution. It applies hardware-specific optimizations such as inlining, dead-code elimination, and CPU-tuned instruction generation.

It may recompile methods dynamically based on runtime execution patterns, making performance adaptive.
