Utilizing multiple cores of the CPU for high performance

These days, the nature of applications focuses more on connectivity, and there are cases where their operations take more time to execute. We also know that nowadays, all computers come with a multi-core processor, and using these cores effectively increases the performance of the application. Operations such as network/IO have latency issues, and the synchronous execution of the application program may often lead to a long waiting time. If the long-running tasks are executed in a separate thread or in an asynchronous manner, the resulting operation will take less time and increase responsiveness. Another benefit is performance that actually utilizes multiple cores of the processor and executes the task simultaneously. In the .NET world, we can achieve responsiveness and performance by splitting the tasks into multiple threads...
